Now that the requisite 24 Hrs have passed since I posted, I can say yes to your assumption that it is a Douglas M-4

I was hoping it might prove a little harder to find because as you say, photos of the later Douglas DAM's types are hard to find! and the M-2 cockpit you found doesn't have much in common to the M-4 except one particular instrument! True the basic panel shape is correct, but even the cutout for the throttle linkage is reversed, so very well done!

The image is on the net, having come from a Flight Archive article https://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarch...0-%201169.html
and on Avia Deja Vue Douglas M-1 - M-4
