There is no built-in function for this.  However, I've attached a  
Python script that will use the lowest-numbered open model as a  
"prototype" and re-bond all the higher-numbered models based on the  
prototype (though it will skip models that don't have the same atom/ 
residue names as the prototype).

So just open your correct PDB as model 0 and all the ones you want  
fixed up in other model numbers and run the script.  You can run the  
script by opening it with File...Open or with the "open" command.
