    That's hilarious. I saw a couple that looked somewhat like that back when I was shopping. No clue why they don't just immediately put it to scrap metal. I'm sure it is due to some sort of process red/tape, that everything has to go to auction. Must have been a hell of a flood though huh? Probably a sharknado of some sort.

    I'm thinking maybe "flood damage" means "careened over the side of the Grand Canyon and washed a few miles down the Colorado being before being dragged through the desert by a team of pack-mules". I mean, close enough, right?

    The funny part...."estimated retail value...$14,480.00!" Is there a part on that car that is undamaged? It looks like the speedo needle is still good...no, wait...

    Wow just hope someone didn't win a "Darwin Award " trying to cross some flooded road. Can't tell ya how many times here in San Diego were someone has to be rescued when trying to cross a flooded road after going around the barriers.

    That was pretty incredible. The power of large volumes of water can be very impressive.
