Default Re: What have you found in your car?

I was helping my brother clean out his newly acquired '64 Nova years ago. The car was built at the Van Nuys plant and lived most of it's life there, only blocks from the dealership. The car is now living in Western NY. When we dug under the seats we found a well dried out lemon! It probably fell out of a bag during the original owners care. Oh, there was an old Readers Digest too. I forgot the date on that.

I just went and looked at a 1972 GTO that has been sitting in the woods for 30 years. Untouched original car. There was more 1970's drug paraphernalia inside than I've ever seen. 4-5 containers with seeds, psychedelic smoking pipes, cooking spoons, you name it.

----Dave,,,You reminded me of a day at work at my Dads hardware store back in about 1962. My cousin, Dave, and I were going to lunch and our routine was to go thru the backyard of the local (small) Ford dealer. We noticed a new wreck in the yard, and as it was a 57 Chebby we thought we would take a look. My cousin looked in from what was left of the drivers side, and I looked thru the passenger window. Underneath the drivers door opener was the drivers thumb. At least I thought it was a thumb as we were totally grossed out and left the lot pretty quickly. Lunch was a barrel of laughs.......Bill S

We picked up a 1970 coronet 500 for test fitting parts and when got into taking the dash apart
we found an old metal weed pipe stashed in the dash. Looked like it was an "Oh crap the cops" kind of ditch and then in the trunk up behind the spare tire we found an old miller lite pop top style can the was never opened but the liquid had seeped out through a hole in the side of the can... Again another Oh crap kind of ditch

Found my original keys w/ knockouts still attached under my drivers seat in the floor pan. One was a Briggs and the other a Rochester...jackpot, one of each!
