Dad'* is a flood car and and according to the previous owner (found contact info in the car after we got it off the insurance auction) the water was just barely enought to seep over the door sills. Well, we picked it up and found the ABS, TRACTION OFF, and BRAKE lights were on as well as the driver seat was completely inoperable except for the heated part.
We yanked the carpet out and got the ice out before it started to melt, but apparently we didn't beat it because last night we found the blower fan was on when we got to the car -no key in the ignition and it hadn't been run in 2-3 days.
We figure a whole new dash-back wiring harness and new power seat track as well as cleaning WSS connections and doing whatever it takes to get the 3 brake/traction lights off, will turn the car into a $10k car, but with what we're looking at we'll probably have close to $2G into repairs so only a $3G-4G profit on it if we can get it done in a timely manner.

Ouch, thats a shame. Must have smelled pretty nasty in there. I am really surprised that such a good high end newer car can only fetch $10K in good condition.
