That may have been " the Lindberg" kit. They offerd a large plastic model of the PT 109 several years ago and I don,t know if it is still available. And thanks for the tip on the movie. I may have seen it many years ago but I don,t remember anything from it I'll have to see it again. Keep posting I would like to see the finished masterpiece. By the way Dumas has another PT boat (Higgens). It has a length of 30 inches and a beam of 8 inches and comes with a plastic hull. I,m sure you've seen it on their website. I tried to pick one up from the hobby shop I work for but our suppliers were out of stock!
