Anyone know of a 1:48 scale RB-57 Canberra kit?

Hello everyone. I'm basically new to modeling. I'm trying to find a model of a Rb-57 Canberra. Anybody know of one or where to look? Also if anyone knows a good place to purchase custom decals it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

If you have not had any luck finding a Canberra in 1/48, testors made a 1/72 Canberra back in the 80's. A quick search on eBay show a few for sale in 1/72. Good luck.

I see two on eBay right now, but, they are not RB versions: Airfix and Classic Airframes 

They are a bit pricey. 

 

Here is a link to Scalemates for the B-57, they may show a conversion kit for the RB.

Good luck in your search.

There was a vacuum form RB created many years ago (mid/late-1970's?).  IIRC, it was no bigger than a 1:72 scale, and I do not have any idea who the manufacturer was.
