Somebody with knowledge of VHF and a good set of hands could have a lot
of
fun with this.

By the 1980's, Nuvistor tubes (6CW4, etc) had pretty well become the
standard for 2m RF amps and converters.
The info from ICM shows a retail price of $12.95 for the kit, so I rather
believe it is from the
late 1960's or early 1970's.

The Nuvistors were history before the 80s. Ameco converters were
using them in the 60s.
