 Here's
a company that I thought you might find of interest.
BOB DIVELY MODELS is a USA
company from Wood Ridge, New Jersey, with a range of rather special and
unusual products in addition to a lovely selection of scale kits.
 The
kits cover a good range of classic aircraft such as the Pitts S-2
pictured here, Stearman PT-17, SU-2 Vought Corsair Biplane and others of
their ilk, mostly in the 1/4 - 1/6th range, as well as a small but
interesting choice of sports models like the  very
affordable T-bird in the lower picture. Of wood construction and with
quality accessories, they certainly appear to be very attractive
models.
As well as their kits, though, Bob
Dively Models also produce a rather unusual range of accessories in the
form of beautiful cockpit interiors, dummy radial engines, wheel pants
and retract wheel wells, plus their 'copied but never duplicated' liquid
masking film - oh, and a rather fun 'crash test' dummy pilot. The
accessories are available not only for their own models, but also for an
extensive range of other well-established scale models on the market as
well as a few generic sets for general application. If you're looking
for something special to finish your scale model, it's well worth
looking at this site to see if there's something there you can use.
 All
cockpit interiors are vacuformed from .030 thick high impact styrene
plastic. They include the dash panel, seat side panels, consoles, stick,
boot, floor panel, rudder pedals and self adhesive instrument and
placard decals. The detail is crisp and precise. Prices range from just
under US$19 for a 1/8th scale Spitfire (Pica) interior to US$43
for the Ziroli P-38 Lightning.
 Here's
that dummy pilot I mentioned (US$4.95) - put him in your cockpit if you
dare!
