Hail. I hate Spring in Colorado.....

[yellaheep]

Made it 42 years in Colorado without a single hail dent. Dammit.

 

This is an hour after the storm, what I saw falling was twice this size.

That's sucks , my brother got hail damage on his Honda too .

Five or so years ago we lost a Ranger and a XJ to hail, utterly destroyed. 

 

 

Been there.

At least it wasn't a MJ that got it.  They build new Dodges every day...  I'm hoping you have insurance for it though??????

Wow that sucks man. I'm really surprised the windows look to be intact?

We had a hail storm in sheridan a few years ago equivelant to that. It. did 14k in damage to my cummins. Insurance payed to repair it. 2 years later, got another hail storm. I was with a different insurance company....9k in hail damage...i fixed the major stuff, got a new windshield and new mirrors, new hood and fenders, and took the rest and payed off the truck. Now she has a few battle scars.

If you get out to Chicago ever, the dealer I used to work at used a paintless dent guy that was some sort of sorcerer. Comes with the tools, and knocks out cars by the hundreds.

And to add insult to injury....

 

The storage lot where I keep all of my MJ parts and projects including the trailer housing my '46 Olds has increased the rent from $300/ mo to $400/mo.

 

I can't justify that. Had to spend the past few days looking for new storage options.

 

Sigh......

Insurance adjuster came out Saturday.  $7904.00   Wondering if I should have my body shop estimate it themselves and see if they're in line with each other.  A guy at work with a similar truck had an estimate by his insurance of over $10K and a guy with a '14 Chevy 1500 quad cab was only $3,200..... All with the same damage to the same panels and no glass to replace.

 

Probably have to schedule the repair out a few months as I'll need the truck to move my junk between storage yards by July 1st.

[DirtyComanche]

I don't see how a proper body shop could possibly fix all those panels for $3200 - the guy with the Chevy better fight that.

 

$8-10k seems reasonable to me.
