Don't bother searching online, but please check the instructions if they are from the Carl era, and will have a North Carolina address on them. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi 5x7,
SST Shuttle: I have both versions the cc: and the xKit but don't have any opened bags & don't want to open them yet. I fiddled with the bag for one of the xKit bags & was able to see that it showed the following dates inside the abbreviated xKit instructions :
July 25, 2005 (cc: Kit)
May 3, 2008 (xKit TM)
Boy, Carl was extremely organized !! So the cc: Kit came first, and the xKit afterwards.
Sheryl may be able to elaborate for us on some of the history of both the cc: (carbon copy?) kits and the xKits and the issues they had with them.
Swift-BG : I have kit #8, and can easily see thru the bag that the back of the instructions shows the following date: August 1, 2009
If someone else doesn't get the others, I may be able to do some more digging later.
