1/48th Monogram B-26 Invader As A JD-1

Burn Up That Quarter Mile...Monogram's "Forty Niner" Dragster
On a visit to my folks house (where I grew up) I came across another piece of my childhood, the remnants of a "Forty Niner" rail dragster. In the early 1960's Monogram offered a line of 49 cent car kits, aimed at the low end kit [...]

1/48 Harrier GR.3 (from Monogram and Airfix kits)
The recent beautiful 1/24 Harrier builds made me dig back and think I should post my own Harrier build of a few years ago. I built this for a friend's father who flew them with the RAF (among his many other duties). I wrote this up for [...]
Monogram dreams of my youth.

They were too expensive for a kid with a meagre weekly [...]
