So, I was on the internet, and found several websites selling collision, theft recovery, and flood damaged supercars. That got me thinking, and I am wondering. Does anyone know if a flood damaged supercar can be repaired in such a manner, that it doesn't necessarily have a full interior, but is street legal? Would it be feasible to work on it at home?
Its a stupid idea, the insurance would be bad, its a ludicrous thought, but I can't help but be saddened at the thought of these poor cars, going to complete waste, being sold for parts.
Please mention whatever flaws come to mind. This is something that I have wondered about for some years now, and I now have people that I can ask. Thank you for reading this far.

Pretty sure the engine could be compromised as well as other important parts of the car.
Would that be possible to completely tear down/rebuild? Or are you talking rust in the cylinders?
Not entirely sure. Also forgot to add damage can vary depending how long the car was in water and if the water was salt water.
Yeah. And whether they attempted to start it without removing the spark plugs, and spark plug cables. It would definitely need a new air filter, transmission fluid, brake fluid, oil, drained gas tank, the carpet would need taken out to dry, there could be mold problems, and the paint could be ruined. But hey! You could still brag to your friends, "I discovered a great life hack! Using my method, I bought a Ferrari for less than the hated, Toyota Prius!"
