A few of you may have seen my stealth vulcan plans in my pegasus thread and i'm hoping to build this up soon but i'm not keen on buying an extra 2 kits for only a couple of parts and wondered if anyone had these spare in any condition? Also looking for some big modern 1/72 landing gear suitable to go on the vulcan, again maybe b-1 parts if anyone has these spare? I don't have much to trade but let me know what you'd like in exchange and i'm sure we could arrange something.

FYI, Scale Aircraft Conversions make a number of really excellent u/c sets in white metal

Robert, you're a godsend!  :thumbsup:

For some reason I'd never heard of these guys before, but they could be the answer to a couple of my irrepairable repairs. Thanks for the link.  :cheers:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Thanks for that, just had a browse and i may get the b-1 undercarriage if shipping to the UK doesn't work out too much

I emailed them and asked if they had a UK stockist, and they came back that A2Zee Models sell their stuff over here. They also added that they'll sell direct and postage for up to six sets would be $8.

Perhaps we could get together on a matched order if that works out best?

Glad I was of some help guys --  I've dealt with them direct in the not so distant past, really excellent service (and the product is very good)

Thanks for the offer Kit and everyone for the help. The undercarriage is sorted now as a friend donated a nimrod set as his is on a stand. Got everything ready on the bench to start i just need a b-1 front end to get the project going a i'd love to finish this and take to some shows alongside other Vulcans. I've had a look and i've got a jaguar t.2 and possibly a tsr2 i'd be able to trade if anyone has what i need but i can try get what ever you'd like in return for the parts.
