Are there any resin replacements wheels for the pro-modeler Helldiver SBC-4 ?

And a cockpit set from True Details too. Their are a few sets kicking around on Ebay (I don't know if Squadron (True Details) is still producing the SB2C set) for a reasonable price.
You might also want to consider the replacement seats. (I think they might be CMK or Kendall)

Ultracast has really good replacement seats too.

Thank-you Brian for the link , my google search these didn't turn up . Will look for them in the very near future . Kit wheels aren't all that bad , just don't like split wheels at all .
Already have the seats on order and .30 cal barrels I order a fair bit through them , awesome service every time !
Hi Matt ,
I didn't op for the resin cockpit set . Went for the Big ED set instead along with Wolfpacks wing fold set , Aries wheel bay and Quickboost exhaust . Still a few more items such as wheel doors , engine

Oh, don't scare her off, Jessie! Terri, I have some spares- I'll look through what I've got and you're welcome to it, including a rather well-worn copy of the Detail and Scale book, er, pile of loose pages. Hey, it's Christmas!
