P-51b Canopy?
 
I bought a Top Flite P-51b kit off eBay, the old kit no longer in production. Kit was nicely preserved and complete, but I am ready to test fit the canopy, and can't find it....and of course those kits have been long out of production.
I have the "D" model conversion kit for it with the bubble canopy, but too late to go that way, the turtle deck is done.

Does ANYBODY out there happen to have a canopy off a wrecked one, or a spare, or a kit and be willing to trade it for the D conversion kit? Otherwise, I am reduced to carving a wood plug and forming my own.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

You can still order parts from Top-Flight.

Thanks, Vic, but they don't have the parts for those old "red box" kits....the current kit they sell is larger, and the canopy is oversize for this airplane. This kit hasn't been made since maybe the mid-eighties.
