Yes Mike, almost all labor. They have to cut the fiberglass corner out and straighten the aluminum frame and make gusset to strengthen it because of the compromise. Then fiberglass and paint. Nada puts it at average condition 10k and mine is way better than average. It was almost "mint" until the damages. I have a loan payment so why should I settle?

Thanks, doesn't look like much until you get into it. The story on how it happened I was told that the guy was backing in to hook up the landscape trailer that was near mine as his big rubber farmer boots slipped off the brake and he panicked. Smashed into it damaging the tounge, coupler and jack and proceeded to push it into my trailer, pushing mine into a fifth wheel (that's how my back window got broke) the back of the landscape trailer smashed into a golf cart and destroyed the body and the cart hit the fifth wheel, then the truck veared off and hit a boat and crushed the hull. Turned into a total **** show for him.

Default Wow Trailer damage

I've been away having my knee surgery and then a few days in Rehabilitation. Pain that the pills give me only some relief. Prayers appreciated. Glad to hear your trailer is repairable. Let us know how it all turns out.

Hopen you have a speedy recovery. My wife had that last June that was the reason we didn't get to use the hilo last season. Good luck.

I had a mishap last year . Damaged door badly, bent right front lift pulley, tore off leveler jack . They had to basically fabricat a new upper half of door. It came in a bit over 2k and I wasn't shocked. Most places are looking at 50 to. 100 per hour shop time. Lots of ever head to cover when you don't do huge amounts of volume.

Stopped by Mantelli's today to see the Hilo. Body work is complete and looks like they did a really nice job. Can't wait to get it back.
