A "couple inches" wouldn't make a man change the whole f#cking motor.

Try a couple feet.

I work at a dealership of vintage/new Corvettes. Some guy consigned (gave us the car to sell for him) and it was a New Orleans car.... (so we found out)

We found out during the inspection when we took out the tranny plug water (tons) poured out!

That car is going back to the seller, end of story. The car (1959) Corvette looks nice, but being buried in a saltwater mix is a death kiss to the whole thing...

************
So you claim it's only a "freshwater flood."

The C5 is so loaded with electronics! ......... even without a flood those f#cers are always in the shop for this or that.... all computer crap.

Run!!!!!!!! from that flood car..... get in your daily driver and speed away from that car as fast as you can!!!!!!!!!! Who cares what it's worth, you don't want any part of that car.

Trust me. ~Joshua
