Hi Shamrock (from a fellow Dub)
You are taking on quite a lot in trying to convert a Boeing 707 into a 720. They are quite different aircraft in many ways.
The Airfix 707 is a series 400, which has the long fuselage of the 300 series.
It has early 707 wings, which are VERY different to the wings used on the 720 and the turbofan powered 320s.
The wheels of the 720 were of smaller diameter than those used on the 707.
I'd suggest that a better bet would be to buy a Welsh Models vacform 1/144 Boeing 720..
