Bf 110C-6 gun pod in 1/32?

Has anyone ever done a set in 1/32 for the Bf 110C-6 with the 30 mm MK-101 cannon?  Don't ever recall seeing one but I think this would be a neat aircraft to do and a relatively simple set to do.  

 

Is this included in the older Revell kits by any chance?

I've seen that, but I don't think that's the one.  That appears to be a cover for the center line bomb racks, as far as I can tell.  The gun pod looks more like a jumbo version of the MG 151 gondolas that the 109 used.  I don't have a photo host since PB shut me down but here's a review of the 1/48 version at HS:

Ooh my hopes were raised and then dashed!

 

I've always wanted to do a C-6 - there were some (one?) in the desert war and have cool Africa camo

 

:(

 

Yeah that's exactly the one I wanted to do, a ZG 26 aircraft with RLM 80 squiggles over RLM 79.  Would be a great looking model.

It's a shell collector called “Hulsenwanne†and only used on B and early C models (C-1 and C-2). It was attached to the fuselage underneath the 20mm cannon shell ejection chutes. Deleted on the C-3 and up, so the spent shells just ejected into the airstream.
