Bob-

That one looks to be in very good shape. Good snag!

I have one, open in the bag. I'm not a huge Estes collector and I never had this kit as a kid (was not aware of it at the time...only had Centuri catalogs in those years), but you are right; the SPEV does not come up too very often. One was listed on eBay recently, but the upper balsa reducer had already been glued in place, etc., though I think all parts were present.

I had thought about getting the Semroc version, but never did.

Good find!

Earl
