Search doesn't bring any thing up. Here's a list of available kits.

The Contrail kit doesn't review too well.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

It's a mid/late 70's vacform kit. To say it's primitive would be generous, there's little more than the basic shapes but at the time it was the only kit available. I did attempt this way, way back and didn't have the skills to do it and never finished it.
