What plane am I? Tractor Pusher

  using the V8 engine and tricycle undercarriage as clues, I'd say it was a Curtiss 1911 Model D

What plane am I?

from SDASM Archives

  It is either an early Curtiss or a copy of a Curtiss (note mid gap ailerons), and it is a pusher. A tractor has the prop on the front of the engine, while a pusher has it on the back - and this isn't both.

  I live an hour from Willow Run and was once inside the factory(1990s). I know Ford Motor Company built Consolidated B-24 Liberator Bombers there at a astounding rate. I've read a fair amount of aviation and I don't recall hearing about transports being built in Willow Run. Tire looks right for a B-24 from pictures and youtube videos I just looked at.
