Safety first, pink sandals and all! Rockin the sander. She is a trooper, but this lands in the court of home style refinishing where she is a helper. She has no interest in the car domain, but she is 110% supportive of my hobby!

Looks sweet and will be way nicer to have that than your previous trailer! Good luck with the build!

Thanks! I'm excited to load the car in it and hopefully get that 8 second pass I've been looking for up at PG2!
Little update: I put one more coat of epoxy paint on it and the little flake stuff. Next is the clear and the floor work is done!

Re: The DSM/Evo Trailer Build...WTF
Should have automatic coverage since you had a trailer before. But that depends on who it was insured through.

Re: The DSM/Evo Trailer Build...WTF
Since you just got it you normally have 7 days to get it on your insurance. Check it out! That seriously sucks man, sorry to hear it!

I didn't have insurance on the old trailer. The towing vehicle covers liability for the trailer, so no requirement to insure it if. I did have plans on insuring the new trailer, due to it having a much higher value, but I didn't do it quick enough.

No such luck on cargo trailers, this can work on an automobile. Still from what I read it's not very clear with autos either.

Re: The DSM/Evo Trailer Build...WTF
So what are your options? Is it even repairable? Or just kinda stuck with it as it is now? Man what a shit situation.

Put the walls up this weekend and installed the tool chest. It turned out awesome. I'm almost ready for the maiden voyage!

Re: The DSM/Evo Trailer Build...WTF
Nice and clean! Any idea if that hail damage can be removed at a reasonable cost, at least on one side? Who cares about the roof haha.

Re: The DSM/Evo Trailer Build...WTF
Hey Mark, just spoke with my mother in law who is a commercial catastrophe adjuster for Farmers. She has a lot of experience dealing with residential claims and said there's a good possibility the damage to the trailer may be covered under your homeowners insurance. If it was parked in your driveway and was purchased in the past 30 days (which you obviously did), a non motorized vehicle aka your trailer could be covered. Definitely worth talking to your agent if you haven't already. Who is your homeowners insurance provider?
