Monogram model kits

A little history for Revell/Monogram's Chevy Caprice Police Car Kit

In 1989 I was writing a column for Scale Auto Enthusiast called "Light Commercial." Some friends and I got the idea to encourage Monogram to produce a then-current Chevy Caprice (like the white one). We put together a letter you [...]
