Very similar very similar to yours with the tip tanks. If the winds weren't working against them they flew non-stop from Dallas to Shawano! What a long time.
The FBO at Shawano had a Bonanza for sale for a while with a similar paint job.
Nice job in updating an older aircraft with all the Right Stuff!
