Wouldn't hurt to spray some wax in the doors and rockers after they dry out, and put dielectric grease on all the connectors. Body cavity wax, you can buy in spray cans and they have long tubes to reach into the body panels. Both will reduce the possibility of residual moisture causing rust.

Got to wonder WHY flooded cars (fresh water) are often NOT left open to dry out. Even complex electronics that get wet in fresh water can often be saved by thoroughly washing with CLEAN water followed by a thorough rinse with distilled water. I have seen a hand held two way radio survive after cleaning having been over 24 hours under water turned on! Even salt water damage can be saved like that IF done quickly AND preferably if the item was not powered on when immersed. Always worth a try!

They absolutely WILL NOT allow you to buy back "totalled" cars. In my case, years ago, I had an über rare SVT Focus EAP Model which was totalled when some numbnuts ran a Stop sign, smashing the drivers side hard enough to where they separated/cracked the frame. I could've made a ridiculous amount of money, just parting it out for Model specific parts (e.g. Recaro seats, HIDs, etc). Once they wrote the car off? Buzz off, seemed to be their opinion on the matter. Thank your Buddy for his Service. You got a Deal!

If you have one, or can borrow / rent one, I’d recommend running an ozone generator in the interior to stop the progress of the mold growth. It won’t clear the mold, but it will kill what’s there and also should help eliminate the smell. As others have suggested if you intend to resume the interior, it will likely take a lot of scrubbing with disinfectant, maybe hydrogen peroxide. I’m gonna guess the hard-touch surfaces could be done this way, but the soft materials might be better off being chucked and replaced (actually I just got to the part where you cut the carpet 😅).

For a heavily modified car like this, at least some insurance companies will allow you, by paying moderately higher premiums, to collect the full value of the car if totaled, and to keep it as well. I can't recall what the generic term is for that option, but I have this arrangement for my Lotus, insured by Hagerty, which they call Cherished Salvage coverage. Because mine has upgraded suspension, a BOE supercharger, and various other mods that would be very expensive, if not impossible to reproduce, if it's totaled, I can strip out all the usable upgraded parts and transfer them over to the replacement car, then sell off or keep everything else as spares. Anyone with a highly modified car should seriously consider this.

It's worth while to do so and give it a try! Parts may be hard to come by ie: the seats, door panels, console.

I restored a "flooded" Chevy Cruze Diesel, though there was no scum line. I suspect someone left a window rolled down in a rain storm. Anyway, after setting for who knows how long at the auction, it was much like the Miata. The body control module sat on the floorboard and had corroded to uselessness. (Dealing with dealerships is a diatribe for another time.) But instead of replacing interior parts, I wiped down the seats with vinegar, which killed the mold, completely pulled the carpet, soaked it in Lysol solution, and let it set outside for a month to dry. (Some parts of the foam carpet backing were 4 inches thick.) There's also powerful ozone generators used to sanitize hotel rooms that works a treat deodorizing and killing mold in cars. I built mine from an ebay module, fan and homemade case.

The pinch seam at the bottom of the doors is intended to be the drain path for internal condensation and window run-off. It's also ideal for trapping fine dirt, which traps moisture and any incidental salt and holds it against the steel. For a few years you notice nothing as it breaks through the primer and galvanizing on the inside, then after an above average wet spell you happen to look at the bottom of your door and see multiple heavy rust starts bubbling through the paint.

Turbo muffler's always worked for me. I don't like loud either. It gets on yer nerves (especially chambered muffler's) and I don't need to signal the cop's every time I get on it from a mile away.

Very much enjoy your car project restoration videos. This one is totally kick ass. Can’t wait to see the final product and I may be interested if you are planning to sell it at some point.

Places you need to get water out of and good and clean, use some isopropyl alcohol. Electronics and all are fine with it.
