my 16th bday present trashed

[cad2k3]

well i woke up at 7 am to a call from my mother saying that my 2002 camaro was left out on the street last night and now they cant even get to it becuase the waters so high. learned everything i know about cars from that camaro, put every dollar i made into it before i got the TA. was my pride an joy, its amazing how you can wake up in the morning to something like this.

RIP "blue"

Is it hydro locked??

[cad2k3]

im 25 miles away and no one can get to it...waters too high hydrolocked is the least of my worries

[Nine Ball]

Houston area? Yeah, several streets have flooded.

As long as you don't start the car, it can be saved relatively easy, as long as the water didn't reach the dashboard. Just empty all of the fluids, remove the spark plugs and empty the engine if it got into the intake manifold, replace the carpet and probably the seats.

That si what I was thinking. As soon as some can get to it, have it towed and then take everything out and let it air dry, and maybe some portable dryers and make sure it is aired out so no mold.

It sucks you gotta redo the interior but that life.

Get some one out there ASAP to get the job don.

Said water was maybe 1/4-1/2 way up the door. You can make out the waterline in the close up pic sort of...Get to check it out when I get off work...

Dude you gotta park the Honda in the back.... Hope you guys cars are alright! You can see the mud pretty far up the door though... What is this from, just a lot of rain?

[will69camaro]

Yea honda has been driven even less than camaro as of late (camaro has had about 3500 miles on it in 1.5 years!). That's just from lots of rain...

[59 camaro]

damn this sucks bro

[goatdevil]

That really sucks. So now we have Cad and Will with a loss. Hey Will is that Friendswood or Pasadena? It just looks like you live down the street from my buddies old house. Sorry that happened guys.

[will69camaro]

That is in Spring! I live almost in the Woodlands on I45. Car ended up being fine. It's been parked for about 5 months so I guess the weatherstripping permanently glued itself to the body. Only water inside was small amount from the Ttop on passenger side...I got very lucky.

William

[HYBRED]

We got VERY lucky. Another couple of inches and this thing would have become a permanent track car!

Ya thats no crap. Good deal it didn't go any higher. To the OP sorry about your ride bro, i understand where you're coming from about it being sentimental. Things will turn out all right in the end tho man.
