Floods do a lot of hidden damage. Electronics get damaged and the damage may not show up for a while. Mold is potentially a problem. All fabrics should be replaced. Potential engine damage. Lots of issues. The flood salvage title will always show up on a Car Fax if it was reported by State Farm (don't know laws on this in Texas). If you are looking at a car from a flood area, always look up under the dash for water lines and mud as it is very difficult to get that cleaned out. If cheap enough maybe good for a racer. --Bob
