Although Homeowner policies do not cover flood, most auto policies that have comprehensive coverage (not just collision) do cover flood.  Call your insurance carrier.

HOUSTON I THINK WE ARE A GO!  Thanks you everyone for your thoughts and prayers... 90 days from disaster to on the road again... most work done by me with lots of help from Hi-Line Automotive, some money from State Farm didn't hurt...

Not only did the Baron get his car up and running in 90 days, but he had a few other things going on ... like moving out of a flooded house, finding another place to live, moving there, dealing with his other cars .... I'm sure there were a few more things.

The man must not sleep !   :D

Mark, none it it would have been possible without the help and support of my VERY UNDERSTANDING WIFE Ariana!  She was a trooper and helped where she could! Big shout out to HiLine Automotive in Downers Grove for letting me use their lifts and shop at a moments notice and even on weekends when they were closed.
