Is that the Occre kit?

 

Someone having just the hull parts to spare is unlikely.

 

Your best shot would be finding a kit someone wants to sell.

If the plans are adequate, the kit parts can be replicated from stock wood.  An early introduction into freedom of scratch building.  There may be other parts that can be replaced with scratch built and by starting with better quality wood, have a better looking result.

Bo,

Can you post pictures as .jpg instead of .hec?   Hec is little used other than on certain phones.
