Any idea what this is?

:wave:
Stumbled across this one earlier today and can't figure out what it is. At first glance, I thought it was a DeHavilland Beaver until I inspected it closer. The tail isn't even close, the engine looks a little different, and the beaver had a 3-bladed propeller.
Anybody here know what the heck it is? (Just a modified Beaver or something different?)

EDIT: Oh, and there's no Beaver wing struts.......

That, sir, is a Cessna LC-126.

Ooh yeah... I guess it does look like a cessna 195 now. The floats threw my off cuz i'm used to seeing 195's on wheels:caked:. I should have recognized it.:redf: But then again I've never been good with light aircraft. WWII planes are more my thing. lol

Thanks.
