Looking at a certain pirate archive, it looks like Hobby Model had an F8U-2NE/F-8E in 1:33 scale (Hobby Model Nr. 66, pics at kartonbau.de) and Wilhelmshavener Modelbaubogen had an F8U-2/F-8C in 1:50 scale (pic in this message from kartonbau.de). They're probably out of print.
I think the IAF magazine also published a 1:250 one in the mid/late fifties as part of a US navy aircraft carrier set (or was it Wilhelmshaven?)
The only free ones I know are simpler models from Ojimak (found on his website) and Trotskiy (not available anymore).

I think you can still find them as second hand or on e-bay. In fact I found the Hobby Model earlier at model-hobby.pl. Let me retrieve the link in my history...

One of my favorite planes, I actually started designing one a couple of months ago. I might finish it someday. I have so much going on in "real life' I just don't have time. I started this one as I saw one somewhere that was essentially a tube with markings that someone was calling an F-8. The aircraft does have some lines to it.
