Did this Boeing end up with Kermit Weeks and get smashed in the Hurricane back in time?

This Boeing 100 was indeed severely damaged while at Kermit Weeks place by hurricane Andrew in 1992. It is currently under restoration. See link.

I saw it while Kermit was helping clear the wreckage of the hangar.
It was so badly twisted I had to ask what it was. I could tell it was a bi-plane but that was it.
