find out how TX treats titles after an ins. co. calls it salvage - states differ
in fact, some states are used to "wash" salvage titles off of cars...
if that works out, then have it inspected by somebody really good with both water damage and 911s - Ed Mayo is (or was?) in your state (maybe Austin?)
only then should you accept the salvage and not get the car back
it sounds like a lot of work but may pale in comparison to the effort you will spend fighting the ins. co. for a decent payment

but regardless, sad to see any vehicle destroyed by water. Hope you can save her.
