Sea Fury T20 conversion, 1/48th

I hope someone can help me find a 1/48th conversion for a Hobbycraft Sea Fury to convert it to a T20 two place Fury. I want to build a replica of the Unlimited Air Racer Dreadnaught. Benard Shouck (I think is his name) built a beautiful one years ago that has inspired me.

Thanks

Well here she is,NX205F Sea Fury 'Dreadnaught' caught at Reno in 1985,as you can see the aircraft is a totally new machine with new tail,longer fuselage,big highly tuned engine,chopped wings,modified cockpit,new tailplane,larger wheels,stronger undercarriage where to stop ! quite honestly you would be better building a new aeroplane as the aircraft is far removed from its original build,there is no conversion set in 1=48th but someone did a vac-form kit of the aircraft many years ago,a very attractive subject.
