Curtiss X-SB2C-6

Was wondering if anyone has ever come across a 3-view drawing of the experimental SB2C-6? I have seen a few photos of the 2 completed A/C. Thanks!

Thanks! Wonder if there is a 3-view of the XSB2C-6? I recall it had a new tail and a flatter top engine cowling. I found it!! It's a September 1945 photo and painted on the fuselage is "ENGINEERING TEST SHIP No. 18620 (Art Whittaker Photo)
My error! The top photo is the actual -6 Helldiver which retained the original tail. The lower photo is a -6 but with added XBT2C-1 sections....Kind of like the hybrid better!

Crikey! As if the SB2C couldn't get any uglier, but dangit, Curtiss managed to do it.
