If Yellow007 is right, that Me-410 is actually a Ju-88 with Me-410 decals.
Originally, the kit was made in the United Kingdom, but was sold as one of two to Steve Gallacci in the US. Steve Gallacci had elaborate plans to make them into some kind of "scratch" kit -- perhaps one of those Junkers that launched "Mistal" glide bombs? But he never got around to it and gave them to me, here in Canada. I build one of the bombers and kept the other around for years, then traded it to Philip Morgan, back in the UK again. Now he's sent it to you in South America! That model kit has travelled more than any of the real bombers!
Why the 410 decals? I didn't have any of the original sheets that the kit should have come with. Steve didn't pass them on to me, I guess. But I had a spare sheet from a Me-410 kit that I threw into the zip-loc bag with the parts.

As I recall, the wheel assembly was primative. There were likely two holes in the wheel well. The undercarriage strut glued into them. Then glue a wheel to the strut. The two doors are just rectangular pieces of plastic that you can glue to either side of the wheel well, without any pins or slots or markings of any sort to attach them accurately. Alternately, you can glue the doors shut over the wheel wells -- the fit is probably not good.
The kit was made by Airfix at a time when that was a particularly crude brand. Many of their kits were the same as they had first introduced to the market in the 1950s. I'm pretty sure the Ju-88 was one of those.
