WHADDA DEAL!!!

RE: WHADDA DEAL!!!
"Flood damaged cars come in three basic stages, from what I understand.
Carpets wet. Water entered the car enough to cover the carpets in water.
Seats wet. Water entered the car enough to cover the bottom part of the seat (where your @$$ goes) in water.
Engine wet. The water was deep enough to cver the engine in water.
Carpets... You'll pretty much need to strip out and replace the carpets after drying everything under there out.
Seats... Same as above PLUS, you'll prolly hafta replace the seats.
Engine... Fuhgheddabouddit!!!
Other things to consider:
Fresh/Salt/Brackish water
Fresh water... Not much to worry about except making sure everything is THOUROUGHLY DRYED OUT!!!
Salt water... You'll hafta clean AWAY ALL the saltyness, then DRY EVERYTHING THOUROUGHLY!!!
Brackish water... FUHGHEDDABOUDDIT!!!
