Turbine engine in it. looks like a grade 1 kit, frame and bottom of engine together,, Anyone know what model this is or anything about it,,,

Google searching only yielded some scanty bits of information, but it appears that Testors/Airfix/Lindberg did a version of Andy Granatelli's turbine-powered '79, although I can't find a pic of the kit.

Here's some info about the real thing

I love me some C3s, so I'm surprised I'd never heard of this kit.
