Revell P-47 in 1/32 Scale:::Help!

After a 20 yr hiatus due to college, Air Force and family, I am finally getting back into the hobby I grew up with - modelling. I kick myself every time I think of the models (finished and unfinished) I let my folks toss away because they didn't have storage space. I can still see the 1/24 scale Camels, Fokkers, B-17's, and the unfinished B-24 and F-16. Anyway, I'm finally in a position to enjoy my time with plastic and bought a few models I couldn't dream of affording back then. I've got to work through a 1/32 scale Spitfire and a FW-190A8, but I picked up an old Revell 1/32 P-47D bubbletop. From what I can tell, it needs a serious sanding to get rid of the bolts, the landing gear are too long, and the cockpit is sparse. Since this was such a cheap model ($10 at Hobby Lobby) I figure I can afford a few upgrades. Any suggestions on how to improve this model? I prefer the razorback version but haven't come across any so far. Any help would be much appreciated!!!

Cheers!

Revell also makes a Razorback. Same errors. G. Ruthman makes a lot of nice things for these kits.

This guy does some very nice resin and cast metal upgrades for various kits.
