ORVIS. Pack rod

Looking for info on an Orvis graphite rod. I know this is a glass forum, but the only info I do find is on its glass counterpart, Orvis, 7' 4 piece, 3 1/8 oz fly/spin full flex "A" pack rod. I've looked everywhere for info on the graphite version but find little to nil. What I have is Orvis, 7' 4 piece 2 5/8 oz fly/spin 6. It doesn't look anything like a spinning rod and I guess the only reason is because the slip rings travel the full length of the cork so you could mount a small spinning real on the forward section of the handle. The cork is incredible small in diameter, it looks quite dainty in fact. This whole set up looks to be way too small and thin to be a #6 weight. So if anyone has any info on this rod I'd be happy and thankful for any tidbit you might have .
Thanks

Maybe from a kit? Does it have a factory labeled tube?

It’s in the 1982 catalog. It could be bought in a suitcase with spinning reel and fly reel, or rod only ($230).
