Looking for a 1/72nd Vought Crusader Two Seater conversion. Maintrack did one, PMP Escala  did a full resin fuselage, not sure if RVHP actually released their 1/72nd version or not and AirModel do a vacform conversion.

Willing to pay for or swap for any of the above.

Cheers

I think Hannants sell the Falcon vacformed TF-8 and the RF-8, 1/72 Airmodel kit 24 with a photocopy from the original details by Peter Mersky courtesy of Aviation News.

No, you don't want anything to do with the Airmodel conversion I can assure you!

I bought one a zillion years ago and it's total junk. I couldn't find a Crusader kit that it would fit, anywhere!  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
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
