I'm sure some of you are aware of the flooding that has happened here in Nebraska.  I stopped by a friends place today saw up close the damage.  I am lucky enough to live on high ground a few miles from the flooded areas so I wasn't effected.  5 years ago I met Dave, dave had an original 66 Hemi Belvedere with 800 miles on it, a 69.5 A12 superbee, 68 Dart GTS 383 4spd, and about a dozen other A & B body mopars.  He was interested in selling but I could afford anything he was selling hahaha.  Luckily, about 1.5 years ago a mopar Guy here in town came in and bought them all, and moved them to his collection.  Lucky for those mopars, because this was the scene at Dave's place todah.  My hand in at the waterline.  As you can see a sweet 440 ext cab short box tin grille was the only Mopar victim.
Looking for the right 70 Cuda project!

Hard to even imagine how much water that is even after seeing the photos.  :(

The aerial view coupled with Dave's place show the damage across the region and close up. So sad... Hope your friend, Dave, recovers well.

What a collection Dave had! So glad the cars made it out prior.  :twothumbsup:

Wow that's terrible! I had no idea, I haven't been watching the news / TV at all and had no idea.

That's terrible exactly.

Heard about it and was wondering if some here were O.K. or not.

I haven't been following the news, didn't know about this. So devastating!

That is so devastating and sad. Glad Bless everyone involved. I was surprised that I heard of it way before the news was broadcasting about it. Of course their stupid stuff was aired first.

 There wasn't a lot of news coverage initially. At one point middle of last week four days after the flooding, I was on the phone with my parents who still live in California and they had no idea that it even happened.

That is just devastating.  There is just no way to prepare for something like that.

Just unbelievable damage and loss.  Nature shows no mercy. My friend is from Nebraska and stationed here in SC  but his family still lives there. Thank God they were lucky and had no flood damage to their home.
