Same problem with my jalopies :shock:
I just keep driving mine until the sun shines and then I'll take a cruise up the north coast with the windows down!
My Sedan will need holes drilled in the rear pans to let the water flow :o :shock:

Save up all those silicone "DO NOT EAT" sachets in food, pills and shoeboxes and stick them in your car :lol:

Craig the stuff Stinky posted is the best thing to use
The actual ingredient is dessicant
You'll be surprised how much you'll need to use - especially with all the water around you at the moment

You should be able to buy it through an electrical wholesaler.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Thanks guys the biggest problem has been trying to find enough for the shed

Going to an interesting day we are one of the suburbs on the flood list so mold could be the least of our problems

My oldest son is in Toowoomba I wasn't able to get hold of him till this morning not a good feeling

Hope everyone else is OK

Theo put that heap of S#@& Magna in the weather and store your cars under the house BUT then they are EKs so the Magna would be worth more
