Some pics of our central processing shop Angst Motor service in Minnesota City. The last pics are of Stockton which was one of the worst affected spots.

Re: Winona flooding

So today they finally decided to let us in. i open the garage door and its a mess. I looked in the car and i see mold over every thing. it looks really bad. so i pull it out and bleach it all and she started up. Oil was all messed up and pure milk, but that was from a previous leak that was keeping the car from the road. So i think i might be able to save the interior but i dont know if its worth it. might be time to pull the whole interior and strip it all and get racing seats. Wait till i post some pics it was terible

Re: Winona flooding

Damn, that's about all I can say. I don't think I'd have the heart to keep a car after that.

Re: Winona flooding

Every car that got flooded is automatically totaled. Insurance companies won't even bother trying to fix a flood car. The water gets into so many different places you'll never get rid of it all. We've repaired a couple at the shop, but they kept on coming back with different problems related to the water damage.

Re: Winona flooding

Well the water didnt get into the engine, just into the oil but thats from a leak the size of my fist (kidding) i already had. She runs and all but the interior was a mess, ive been bleaching the hell out of it and have it all cleaned up and getting fixed now. So i might just gut the interior and look for new seats. Dont puke when you see them.


Ill post pics later of what it looks like all cleaned up

Re: Winona flooding

That mold looks horriable. Be careful around it, it can make you very sick.

How high did the water get?
