“and were suspected of the cause of the fire...”
There you go misrepresenting the facts.
Looks kinda fast
85 yrs. Ago.
WOW -—
Had a ‘62 Bug
Stone Cold Stock.
SoCal Perfect.
$500,000 for a car that probably has at the least smoke damage, soaked interior, salt water corrosion underway in the wiring harness? Did the fire burn straps securing the cars to the decks?
The ride down to the sea floor may not have hurt them much, but the sudden stop may have.
Only 1.6 L engine
there you go lying...
“there you go lying...”
Cite the lie!

I didn’t think water would put out a lithium battery fire.

Likely no Seats or Skodas. Other VW brands include Porsche, Bentley, Lamborghini, Ducati (probably none of those, either), Audi, and, of course, VW. (They also mention Cupra, but the link to that page appears dead, and I’ve never run across one).

You did.
prove it...
““the article states that there were lithium-ion battery powered electric vehicles on board and were suspected of the cause of the fire...”

No it was sailing to a RI port to unload.
From the pictures provided during the attempts to save the ship most of the cars were burned. A burned car has no value, just the liability associated with getting rid of the hazardous waste remaining.
Even the parts from the cars are useless after an intense fire.
