Help! 1/32 Hornet Parts Needed!

I have many F-18 Hornet projects going right now, and had another I want to begin but I am holding off until I know I can complete it. I have an old Hasegawa/Minicraft 1/32 scale kit that I saved from the garage. The problem I have is like this: back around 96' my Dad got one and planned to convert it to a C model and do a superdetail job on it. With that in mind he cut all of the avionics bay panels out of BOTH sides of the forward fuselage. After building the bays he went to fit the nosegear well in, and realized it wouldn't fit![:0] Rather than scrap the project Dad went to the local hobbie shop and managed to get another kit at a discounted price because it was missing one of the vertical fins. He took the forward fuselage halves and consigned the rest to the garage. I took it and brought it in the house. I can build a nice Hornet out of it, but I'm at a loss as to how to get the three parts I need. If any of you have any ideas I would greatly appreciate hearing them. Thanks!
