You could try the ACWalk group at yahoogroups, I think there was some 
*early* A-7 stuff (probably A-7a, but it *is* a start)
There were a couple of A-7 cockpits going on ebay about 12 months ago... 
one had a link to a site, I'll see if I still have the link...

If you are going to build an ESCAPAC ejection seat I have a bunch of photos 
of the real thing and even some drawings/photos of how I built mine (I 
assume the D had an Escapac, I'm only up on Navy models, and they did <g> )
