It would be nice to have an original Taurus kit, but unfortunately, chances are the eventual buyer will just place it on a shelf in the hope he can make money on it later on.....what a shame.
The wood is probably "mushy" by now anyway. If they want a Taurus, build one of Jeff's laser-cut kits, (from Home and Hobby Solutions).
What I would like most from an original Taurus kit would be the BOX and the PLANS

My original Taurus kit that took from 1981 to 2005 to finish, (obviously I was not working on it o a regular basis)
