Superb piece. I have this piece in my collection with a similar rear canopy. My example is an early preproduction model.

The canopy has different securing lugs and rear roll compared to production items.

The black canopy is also a trial item. not to be confused with the charcoal examples on the giftware.

That is a nice early 5 cleat model and would sit well with my twin wheel and yellow versions.
