I believe it is some variation of the Easy Riser. No idea on the pricing.

It's an Icarus, one of the early hang gliders of the 1970's, designed by Taras Kiceniuk. Later, John Moody added a motor to one, creating the Easy Riser, one of the first powered ultralights.
The Icarus is obsolete and no longer made, but Easy Riser kits are still available from http://www.pioneerflyer.com/Easyriser.html The price (without motor) is $2400.
