John, awesome work as usual. Is this engine from the Anikin Skywalker kit I sent you? If it is I'm glad I was able to contribute to such an incredible build. If it's not, I'm sure the model you do use it on will be just as impressive.
Regards,
Jimmy

Jimmy...yes, this is the Star Wars Jet Engine you sent me......it was very useful.....thank you so much.

I got the bodywork all finished .....with PPG Epoxy primer ......I put a H.O.K. White Base coat.....then I used Scale Finishes Chrome Yellow......then I airbrushed all the graphic colors on the sides of the Van.......then I added Steve A. decals.....thank you Steve A. for the Great Decals and the help of researching this Van.....I couldn't have done it without your help.....Steve A. your Decals were a dream to work with ....thanks again..

I also added some Archer Transfer Louver Decals on the back of the Van

I need to sand the body smooth and add one more Clear Coat.......thanks for looking
