Brian, there should be lots of salvagable parts. Anything plastic or glass. I'd get transmissions and engines and plan on going through them. Just salvaging a good ring and pinion set or a cluster gear from a 5 speed is worth while at the right price and I can't imagine that they've been wet long enough to hurt them (the gears that is). I once pulled a gearbox from a V4 car in Missouri that had been in a creek for months. (Fresh water). It turned out to have some of the prettiest gears you ever saw. Of course almost anything electrical is likely to be wrecked. I'd actually salvage a crack free dashboard too if there is one. It's basically plastic, almost every car needs one and they aren't cheap. Tires and wheels.
