Car got caught in flood waters onfriday. Stalled out. Got pushed out and the car started after 20 miunntes. Drove fine all weekend. Temps dropped below freezing alst night and now the car wont start. Bettery is fine, but it is a standard and it wont even turn over. Seems that everythign underneath is frozen. No water or ice in oil, fuel, etc.

this is why flood cars are problematic, simple moisture can foul things up , a bath raises havoc ! clean your battery cables at both ends, change all your oils , engine, tranny , ( is it a transaxle ?) and put some methyl hydrate in the gas ,1/4 quart at least, some of your electrical connections might have to be opened and cleaned , since water expands when frozen it has enough force to loosen connections . good luck !
