My first flood

[Keith Strehle]

I appreciate all the advice and I'll wait for Ernie to check in. It
appeared that most of the water ran out the drivers side rather than
toward the carpeted area. And it's pretty dry here in SoCal so I
think I'll take it in stages. Suck up as much as possible, (maybe
call in Coit?) blow it for a long time and check it with my moisture
meter. If it's still to moist I'll go with peeling up the carpet.
It's original carpet and I would like to keep it.

Thanks again...

Keith
