Rebuilt from 44-74832 c/n 122-41372 and 45-11453 c/n 124-48206, both destroyed by fire, one (N6310T) in a hangar fire at Athol, Idaho in 1981 and the other (N551MR) in a forced landing on 12 February 1996 on approach to Naked Lady Ranch, Palm City, Florida. The remains of N551MR were sold in 2003 and rebuilt, essentially as a new airframe hence the new individual c/n TM001, and registered as N551TM on 25 October 2005. It was re-registered as N94384 on 27 February 2020.
