The guys from the snowplowing-contractors.com forum have seen this already, but we have a different set of members here, and I'm open to any good advice.
Ivan hit the Pittsburgh area pretty hard. There was lots of flooding in low lying areas.
This is a 96 Chevy with 70-some thousand miles. It was at a service station for it's State Inspection. It now has brand new stickers, a new gas tank and sending unit, some new brake lines, and a fresh starter. It was ready to go on Thursday evening. Friday, it rained....
What can be done with flood damaged vehicles?
We don't know whether the insurance company is going to total it--this is a new experience. If not, what needs to be done? If it is totalled, is there anything to be gained by buying it back from the insurance company and getting it roadworthy again, or is it a lost cause?
As the pics will show, the water was above the dashboard....
