ick.. a salt water flood car
ok to get the ign out turn the key to the run pos. and stick a small pick or screwdriver into the hole at the bottom of the steering collom cover.then you will be able to pull the cyl out once you depress the pin. you will see it the hole is directly under the ign cyl.
if you don't mind me asking how much did that damaged mach cost you. and how do you go about getting them.
i paid $6005.00 for it with handling fees...etc. they got some 03/04 cobras we bidding on..but some people bid hi on them cars still ..my bro inlaw got the mach1 i brought it from him for what he paided for it ..he found a 70 mach1 right after he brought it ..theres a web site but dont know it ,he does ..its some sort of co/hop place there 80,000 for bidding....i hope i didnt bite of more than i can chew here...i got a 99 cobra right now it was slight flood damage that car still has clean title ,the machs title says katrina flood damagesvttech76 said:
Depending on it's location during the storm it may not have been in salt water. Most of the cars from the New Orleans area wouldn't have been salt water.
There is a wrecking yard a few miles from my house. It looks like a Barrett-Jackson of flood cars. Just from the Interstate I can see a Ferrari and a Lambo...A couple of people have tried to go look but you have to have a dealers license to get in.
There is a guy selling an 03 Cobra for 10 grand...not sure if he still has it.

why would you pay 6K for a salvaged vehicle? 
i paid 800 for my T boned rear wrecked cobra.
made my money back selling the brakes and front end parts. and profited 2500 with the drivetrain. did get the vehicle running before i sold it

just find it odd that you cant pull the key cylinder out.nitrous408 said:dam good deal..but that car will not ride another day..also thats a older cobra.i already got someone wanting to buy it ..for $13,000 when iam done in 3 weeks.iam a mod motor man too .will have 8000 total in it whan done 5 g's in 3 weeks isnt that bad.
not sure if your state puts a salvage title on flooded vehicles. must be pretty spooky buying used cars in your state. id want to know if a vehicle was involved in a flood damage or deemed a salvaged vehicle.
but i had a car lined up to put in that mod motor i just sold. already found a buyer for the donor. or else throw in 5L . a clean 4 cylinder rolling chassis. vin stickers on both front 1/4 panels matches the original vin. was going to make another modularfox street car.
curious on that ford gt 500- was it a dealership flood damage or was it just a random owners car?
