Looking for a Big U-Boat! - Help please

I'm sculpting 28mm figures for a U-boat crew and I want a U-boat model to show them off.

I'm looking for a Big U-boat! I want it for a static display only - it doesn't have to float - (in fact I'm going to cut it off below sea level - I don't require any internal motors etc.

But it must be big! around 3 or 4ft in length. (anywhere between 1/48 and 1/60) compatible with figures roughly 1 inch high.

I've so far identified The Krick 1/60th VIIB - which is probably spot on - only a tad small - But I want to see if I can find just the shell - or maybe a non-runner - abandonned project.

I have also identified that 1/48th ones are out there.

Any help or pointers to other forums where I might post would be greatly appreciated. I am a competent model builder so I'm not wanting to pay more for one already made or anything - I want to keep the cost down as much as possible.
