Geoff:
I did envisage the US army, possibly ArNG using early model Seakings in the transport role. The USAF did in real life. 

GTX_Admin:
How about a AH-3 derivative with a tandem attack nose (ala AH-1 or Mi-24D) and wing pylons but with cabin still in back?

Like a Hind -hmm.

ChernayaAkula:
Like this?

AH-3A "Jolly Mean Giant"
SH-3A with AH-1G nose + AH-1G stub wings moved to SH-3 sponsons




AH-3W "Jolly Mean Giant"
SH-3A with AH-1W nose + AH-1W stub wings moved to SH-3 sponsons



I suppose you could move the stub wings a lot further up (much like an UH-60's ESSS) and make them into "proper" wings (as on the Mi-24).

There is one big problem, though: the AH-1's fuselage width vs. the SH-3's.



EDIT: For completeness' sake, here's the top view from post #29.



Looks like it wouldn't need too much putty to adapt after all. The fuselage taper starts just ahead of the outrigger support strut.

Litvyak:
Maybe go with a Mi-24 A style of greenhouse canopy?
