Well here they are, kinda graphic...my rig is opened up like a Sardine Can, I will have to admit I miss hearing her whirling from the S/C!! They already have quite a few of the OEM sheet metal, so I better get to ordering the hood and rack!!

 

Mike:

What the hell happened? Did I miss a posting?

Hi there Paul....ya that would be the result of my rig ending up on the roof and me sitting on the headliner

 

Man that really sucks to see your Runner in that kind of shape. I had no clue they tore a rig that far down when doing body work. Let's just hope it's as good as new when you get it back from them.

 

YYAAA I know....can you believe all of that for a door ding!!!!

 

man that really really sucks

hope you're ok

wow... from the pics I've seen previously, I didn't realize the damage was that bad. Hopefully it's a reputable/trustworthy body shop.

On a lighter note... the wheels you've got on your rig... do you sell them? If you've got them in a 15" rim I might be interested in some in the semi near future.

 

GEEZ Xtreme, I wish you had warned me about the content! I almost "pooked" Hard to believe how far they dismantle in order to do some repairs..... I think I could GET your rig to that point. It's putting things back together again that are a bugger for me.

 

Looks like an expensive rock buggy now on a brighter note Just kidding, I hope she works out for you. How did your insurance handle it?

 

I had the same feeling when my rig was hit. It is a terrible feeling. Almost like a lonely feeling. Goodluck though and know that it will be just as new in the end. :fireman:

 

I bet you it will look "bangin" when it's all fixed up
Seriously Mike, I think your rig will look sharp after the repairs are done

 

Wow...big job. Hope you're OK. That's a real nice shop you have it in, looks like they're quality oriented. Hope your ins company treats ya good.

 

I didn't like the looks of the Ball Peen Hammer laying on the ARB. Hopefully they were using it to adjust the PIAA's.

That teardown looks really bad considering the rollover pics didn't look too bad at all. What's the total tally going to be when she's pieced back together?

 

yeah i know what you mean about the lonely feeling. did you roll it over, or what happened? didnt see the posting before. my mom rolled her old runner, just about totaled it, so we sold it as-is to a guy who fixed it up for himself... anyways that sucks, hope it gets fixed faster than mine did!!

 

Two words: Soft Top!

It would be sooo bad ass! I'll donate $20 if you turn it into a soft top. If I keep mine and turn it into permanent trail rig...its going that route.

 

So did insurance cover everything? Did they know that it happened while off roading? Did they give you a hard time about it? Lastly, who is your insurance company?

For some reason this picture reminds me of the 4th gens

 

spray the entire inner pannels with sound deadening materials while it's striped!!! it would be like a dream inside at highway speeds!!!!!

Sad news about the whole situation but it doues kinda look like robo truck
