This almost NIB Veco .29 just fell into my lap. Is it worth building a plane for?

It has no muffler, obviously, but my R/C flying field is far enough away from neighbors that noise should not be a problem. The largest C/L planes I've flown have been a Goldberg Shoestring and a Sig Super Chipmunk, both powered by an old Fox .35. I think I'd like a profile plane similar to the Shoestring, but I'm wondering what performance could I expect from the .29?

My internet research leads me to believe that this motor isn't collectable, since it's a four screw crank cover model.

Thanks for your input,

Phil
