How about parts to convert 1/350 Intrepid to Essex?
Long hull/short hull?
Right now, we can help you build a 1/350 scale Korean War-era SCB-27 USS
Essex CV-9 from a straight-deck Trumpy long-hull kit, circa 1951-1953. Link:

Vietnam War-era and later Essex-class SCB islands we offer include:
USS
Yorktown CVS-10, 1968-1970
USS
Intrepid CVS-11, 1966-1967
USS
Hornet CVS-12, 1967-1969 (Apollo 11 recovery)
USS
Lexington CVT-16, 1993
USS
Oriskany CVA-34, 1968-1973

Several are available in 1/530 scale for the classic Revell kits, and 1/500 for the classic Renwal kits.
We also offer several other 1/350 scale Korean War-era and World War Two configuration Essex-class islands. Link:

Most are available in 1/700 scale, too.
As Timmy said, there are no plans to offer flight decks or hulls; we do not have the capability to produce products that large, nor could we make them work financially.
