Ha HA ...That reminds me of a guy i met last year who sold his big boat for a newer bigger boat. Him and his wife measured the height of the new boat and the carport but forgot about the bigger diameter tyres on the new bigger trailer.! Got it home and it didnt fit >:( >:( The cheapest way was to get a bobcat in and dig out the brick paving to lower the floor!!! :-\

Why not just let some air out of the tyres...lol
Always walk a mile in someone else's shoes...you'll be a mile away, and you'll have their shoes!!!

any advice on spraying my van - i want to go matte blk? based in melbourne.

matt is awesome for hiding bad body prep and looks awesome in my opinion..

advice. what advice do you need?

if you paint it in undercoat your supposed to seal if first because lots of undercoats are porus.. 2pac ones arent thou but expensive:( if not sealed the rust starts cause the bare metal is not protected..

Tractor paint! John Deere 'Blitz Black' is a popular paint for a satin black finish, durable and pretty cheap.

Chalkboard paint LOL ;D but seriously you can get a flattening agent and ad it to the paint that way you have normal paint that seals and when drys has a matt finish

Or use a rust inhibiter paint like Rustolieum.

Do a google search on the "50$ paint job"
