Tom, Many of us, myself included, were not modeling in S in the 80¹s. I never even knew of the project, have never even seen the one that Don offered, and I would assume that the current technology would allow a better-functioning, better looking unit.
At least that is my thinking for why duplicate something that has already been offered :) Cheers.

That's the unit that Don Heimburger offered back in the Eighties. Why duplicate something that's already been offered? Why not offer a variant? After all, EMC offered many types of doodlebugs in the St. Louis carbody.
