Default Estes Cherokee-E?

Last night I was perusing ebay and I thought I saw a listing for a new Estes Cherokee-E kit. I can't seem to find the listing now.

.....or was it the Scotch?

Thanks

I believe it's one of the Hobby Lobby exclusive releases.

Look at completed listings and see. The guy canceled his listing starting out at $.99. But with the scotch you may have seen $99 so you didn't bid (:

It is indeed! I built this one a few weeks ago. BTW, Rustoleum Bright Blue gloss matches the blue of the decals almost perfectly.

And the Cherokee-D itself is a stretched Cherokee-D.

The original K-47 had a 16.35" BT-55V body tube. Later ones used a full 18" length tube.
