    Screen in or out isn't likely to make much difference I wouldn't have thought. So long as you have no upper tailgate on (or make sure it's open) or even tailgate glass out.
    Good luck with the trip and blasting. Look forward to seeing the progress. Where are you located?

    Yep, got early photos of the real lady also, was only referring to the twin stickers on the sides of this thing as someone tried hard with lots of surf shop stickers on it. I'll change the title when I work it out.
    I'm in the Kimberley, Kununurra, trying to get something done before the build up/ wet starts

    Has anyone had any experience with "dustless blasting" ? The bloke I got the van off has bought one for his engineering business, I can use it if I pay for the compressor hire. A mate practiced on his car hoist & I tried it out on a old door. Using the water there is no heat build up, it leaves a fair residue on there but then we took it home & hit it with a gerni, came up pretty good but it flash rusted quick. Apparently there is an inhibitor that when used stops the rusting.
    I'm more concern with getting mud? jammed in all the nooks & crannies but on the rotisserie I can spin it every which way while washing with the gerni. This must happen with normal blasting? The chassis that came with this is finished & painted, but look inside the rails & it's full of sand (garnet)

    They must have missed him at the border stop, I'll let them know!

    Almost ready, just as a chance of a few showers in the next few days
