I don't really know anyone first hand or well enough that would lend out a booth, but I will ask around.
If you need an extra set of hands to help in any way let me know I am not far away.
Also, happy to chip in for trailer and booth hire.

Photos didn't really show it, but the car had some damage from paint oven roof filters melting & falling over the car. I had to rub the top panels back & re-prime the roof & bootlid. Bonnet i just re-blocked. The car has been blocked back for the third time & i'm hoping it'll be painted this coming saturday. Big thanks to Ruts for organising a paint oven to hire. Car will be going to Bargo south of Sydney to be painted, was able to get my brother-in-law's turbo diesel Pajero to tow but no luck in organising a car trailer so it's looking like i'll have to fork out for a tilt tray. Has turned out to be a very expensive excersise trying to get this car painted, hoping it'll be worth all the headaches by saturday afternoon. Thanks again to all those people who offered help & encouragement, i hope some day i can return the good will.

... was able to get my brother-in-law's turbo diesel Pajero to tow but no luck in organising a car trailer so it's looking like i'll have to fork out for a tilt tray. Has turned out to be a very expensive excersise...
How about a U-Haul or similar car trailer - must be cheaper than a tilt tray by a fair margin?
I used one myself a few months ago and it was relatively cheap as chips - since you have a tow vehicle, surely a hire car trailer will suffice over a tilt tray for which you have to cover fuel, driver's time and running costs plus the owner's profit margin?
Most pertrol stations are agents for U-Haul or similar nowadays and booking is on-line; you just turn up, swipe your card, collect your electrical plug and away you go!
Good luck with it and I look forward to seeing what comes out of the paint booth.
Cheers, TB

Its awesome to see that their is always someone from here willing to help out and everyone in the peepshow picture (except Dennis. He just picked on me ) has helped me out in some way and I hope at some point I can return the favour somehow.
