Seems to be real

On second thought, the 2 pics aren't the same and everything I've found indicates these planes had a full length fuselage. This pic must be a chop job, as I find no other pic of a Mitchell with fuselages trailing the engines.

Well Hell, this plane is part of the Commemorative Air Force in So St. Paul, MN. I SAW this plane last March at the hanger in this pic.

Yes, a B-25 like what you have pictured above, has a single center fuselage not a twin boom double tail. Same tail number 327-493 in both your photo and the "Blightning" photo. So I would logically conclude it's a photoshopped monstrosity.
