I dont have any spares. I do have a Monogram 1/48 B-17G, but I plan on building it someday...
I built the Revell 1/48 B-17F and it is a nice kit, but sparse on detail.
Here is a great link, Matt Swan put together a history of the 1/48 B-17 that may help you in your search for details...

My B-17F is pictured down towards the bottom.

What goodies TAdan? I've got a 1/48 B-24 kit that I will never do anything with.

Chad, as far as "goodies" that Revell left out...The B-17F has very little interior detail, while the Monogram B-17G has a fully detailed interior.
I have built two 1/48 Revellogram B-24's a D and a J and I was very happy with them. They are very nice kits, easy to assemble, nice detail, etc...
I would like to build another 1/48 B-24D one of these days...

Sorry TAdan, I confused you and Tom when I made my post. Sorry for the confusion.
