How about this for a 1/32 Boeing-Stearman or NAF N3N?

I now realize that nobody makes a 1/32 kit for a Boeing-Stearman or NAF N3N trainer. But, what about modifying (extensively modifying I admit) a 1/32 Hasegawa F4B-4? It's out of production, but the kit can still be found on the internet.

I'd have to modify the upper wing, add a second cockpit and trim down the rear fuselage. For the N3N, the engine cowl could be removed. The vertical stabilizer would also have to be reshaped. But, maybe just maybe it could be done.

I think I really need to do an NAF N3N since that's the type of plane that was used as a trainer at NAS Pasco during the war.

Possible, or just a pipe dream?
