Maybe the DC-8 could have been converted to an ASW/Maritime Patrol aircraft. 

Well there was a B707 ASW/MPA proposal, so why not - maybe in competition?  Alternatively, any of the 707 type mods - ELINT etc, AEW/AWACS, Tanker etc...KC-24A anyone? Or even something simpler - in the livery of airlines that never flew them in real life, e.g. QANTAS.

I'll throw a VC-24 Air Force One into that bag.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

"Rivet Joint" based off late-model DC-8s rather than 707's or KC-135's?
