Sadly there was no provenance for the photos but I did find:

My garage? Hardly

What is needed now is a crazy modeller to do one of these as a project. Save building the kit wouldn't it?

Actually someone did. They did it in 1/72 scale no less. I don't recall if I have pics of it, but I do remember seeing it done.

I'll see if I can dig them up again.
