The ZHP is sitting in the carport.......not being driven :/
Not always a bad thing.Quote:

...so you drove up those little ol' hills, right?
Well of course ;)
Today I put stabil in the fuel tank, pulled the battery and covered it. Sad day.
With time running out a little bit on my insurance claim and not knowing what my mechanic is doing with his new shop and the timing of everything, I decided to go back to the shop who repaired the front end of the ZHP and am having them fix the hail damage on the car. ZHP is going into the shop on Jan 4th.
Best if luck

Got an update from the body shop. The ZHP should hopefully be ready next week Friday. The estimate jumped from $2,500 to $5,000 (less deductible). The good news is that it doesn't count against me because it is hail damage. They are replacing the entire shadowline door trim which at first I thought was weird. The right rear section is missing because the clips broke and I couldn't re-attach it. I am also not going to complain. They are also replacing the roof moulding.
Hopefully Friday it'll be back in my possession.
Awesome
Cool - no pun intended (hail)

Got a call from the body shop yesterday. Moulding parts from Germany unfortunately have not arrived yet. :/
Maybe it's a good thing. Keep the dirt and salt off the car longer
Any updates?
The car is done. Unfortunately I cannot pick the car up until Saturday due to my brother having shoulder surgery.
Good to hear the car's done and hope your brother's surgery goes well.
On a unrelated note, your screen name reminds me of Champ from Anchorman 2:

Awesome.
Looks good :thumbsup
So, no major update as of late. I think the ZHP has either a blown shock or a bad RSM mount. Noise is coming from the right rear as of late and is a lot more pronounced. I thought I had a blown shock a year or two ago and had ordered a replacement from Bilstein. I haven't installed it because the noise at the time vanished. It now may be time to revisit this.
The ZHP may have a new home in the near future as my g/f put in an offer on a house. If all goes through, I'll probably wait to do the work then.
What rear shock mounts do you have? Look into the Rouge RSM if the ones on your car are bad.
Good luck with the house. Does it have a garage?
My guess the mounts are Meyle HD mount. it came with the mounting kit from Turner. Once I get moved into the house, I'm going to look into the shocks more.Quote:

The market out here in CO is ridiculous. Seriously ridiculous. And sadly, there are some shady people unfortunately.
Also, for those who missed my FB Group post, this got added! :cheers

Nice, I like dem stickers.
ZHP got emissions tested yesterday. I swear there are some real "quality" people there. Took them three times to test the car. I was nervous the entire time.
Next up is getting the bike rack on the car and getting her ready for the move to the house. My girlfriend closes on the 5th. Excited to have a home for the vehicles and be able to do work.
Congrats
Thanks!Quote:

Here's a pic of the ZHP inside the garage. Today I am hoping to get underneath the car and see if the shock is blown or if is something else.

The rest of this month is going to be consisting of moving everything. Lots. of. fun.
That looks like a pretty nice and big garage.
It is. Definitely oversized. WIshed the garage was finished (insulated+sheetrock/drywall). Guess that'll be a project in the future. I definitely want to build a workbench soon.Quote:
