What did you find in YOUR project car...?

[rwhite692]

PHR had a neat sidebar item in the current issue about stuff found in cars when being cleaned up, or torn down for a rebuild. Let's continue it here.

My 66 Chevelle: Ashtray full of .38 Cal Bullets (seriously), Under the seats: three plastic army men, a duncan yo-yo, and a roll of those nasty Necco wafer-candy things.

My 69 Camaro: a belt buckle, enough dog hair to weave a sweater for a baby Eskimo, and a LOT of loose change...like $19 worth.

Loose change, remote for car stereo and a dead field mouse behind the driver's side kick panel.

I found 3 shotgun shell and like 5 bucks in change. The guy told me would get shot at all the time. I guess his neibours(sp?) didn't like him.

Colorful additions to my vocabulary, which oddly enough, most of those words I have filtered out from being used here on the Forums.

Rust and lots of it.

Memories!!
Since I am the original owner when I tore the car down for paint and interior I found a lot of little things under the back seat from my kids.

My youngest is in her second year of college now, damm I feel old.....

My car was stored in my sisters garage for 5 years before I started
the most recent rebuild.

I'm guessing it was mice that carried about 50lbs of dry dogfood throughout
the entire car. Under every seat, under the dash, in the air cleaner, you name it.

Cleaned up easy enough, but was pretty weird.

A note from someone's wife telling him she was leaving him...and why!

No Lie! It is about 5 pages long, and reasons include:

Golf
Cars
TV

Lots of unusable car parts...I think the seller saw the sale of the camaro a good time to clean the garage!!

No change under the seats as this car was partially torn down already. But I did find an insurance card in the ash tray....

In my 69 Camaro, I found the POP and the window sticker.
