[QUOTE="oster910, post: 15692216, member: 145833"] [ATTACH=full]1408738[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408739[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408740[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408741[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408742[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408743[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408744[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408745[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408746[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408747[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1408746[/ATTACH] I have seen some threads on here about flooded cars, some people are curious about how it all works. first and foremost I don't want to sway anyone to get one or not to get one, that being said I have some experience in this. I picked up a 2014 gt from a fresh water flood, and It needed a new motor, so we got one and did opg, cs and put a blower on I have literally driven this car across the united states, I took it through the desert and all over the country and did pretty well, no issues no electrical gremlins and not one bit of rust mold or anything like that, the car has honestly been the best automotive purchase I did. I know some of you will say there will be electrical issues down the line and I would have to disagree, at least not in the 11-14's when we pulled the old motor for the new one we noticed the connections are sealed, I have put 16k miles in the time I have owned it and its been extremely good to me. my brother got a 2011 gt he got from auction as well and the car also needed a motor except his was flooded past the dash, and he has had the same situation, he has put over 70k on the car and has not had any electrical issues or anything for that matter both cars have 0% rust and no mold I have a friend of mine who did a very similar thing, with 2 other 2013 gt's and has had them for years, he has not had any issues I know it may sound too good to be true but that's my experience, I am not trying to convince anyone to go ahead and buy a flooded car, because there are a lot of variables but that being said we both made out extremely happy. if someone was going to ask me if they can check the car out and put it on the lift I would go ahead and do it, I actually want to get all of the pictures of the process and make a thread on that sometime. I cannot say that all cars will be this way, I know some older cars will not do so well, and will probably be good for parts, but I for sure will get another flood 11-14 in the future one thing I ask of you if you ever decide to go this route, never get rid of the history of the car and be 100% open with people if you ever plan to sell a car that's been flooded [/QUOTE]
