Anyone interested in buying a flooded car? It had water up to the center console. It was parked outside the house when the flood hit and the engine has not been started yet. The air filter is dry and there was no water in the oil. The car has 141000 miles but the drivetrain is newer. It has an LME forged 347 with 27,000 miles, AFR 205s, 224/228 cam, kooks headers, LS6 intake, catted Y, Magnaflow catback. Also it has a T56 rebuilds transmission and an ls7 clutch with 27,000 miles on each. As far as other mods it has bilsteins all around, adjustable phb, 35/22 Eibach swaybars, HID projector headlight conversion. It has y2k corvette replica rims, 17", 9.5" wide front and 10.5" rear. It has 2 year old yokohama 275's on the back and brand new GSD3 255s on the front. I don't think I'm going to have the time or means to part it out or repair it since I'm military and moving soon. Let me know if anyone's interested, I'm talking to the insurance company on Monday about buying it back or not.
Edit: fixed the mods list, y-pipe is Kooks ORY with cats welded in. Added pictures from engine swap and HID install. Also the insurance company hasn't gotten me a buy back price yet so sorry to keep you guys waiting. Even if they call me tomorrow it will still be a few days until I have the car back at my house.
Edit: also has Harland Sharp mod to stock rockers. Has 4.10s in the stock 10 bolt.
Edit: Insurance needs 3000 to buy it back from them. Starting price is $5000

The engine is not hydrolocked because it has not been run since before the flood. But if there's water in it I'm not going to risk hydrolocking it by starting it before I've pulled the plugs to verify. The real question is whether the starter/pcm/alternator still works.
