The other day in Bolingbrook, IL, I saw a small aircraft being towed on a trailer. It looked like an all-white BD-5, but it had a nose like a MiG-8 without the canards. Any idea what sort of airplane this may have been?

There have been a few attempts at custom nose cones over the years - closest to your description might be
