In my wife's Blazer: under the seat was a 15-year-old street atlas (Hartford, CT) soaked in what I think was ATF. Yuck. Nothing I've found compares to you guys!
 
In a 69 Dart GT found a full stubby bottle of Molsons Ex inside the airbox behind the drivers side vent door. Around the neck of the bottle was a mechanics pit pass for the 72 Indy race in Montreal. This was in around 2010.
 
I bought a 74 or 75 Dart for motor, trans, and rear. Before pulling that all out me and a friend of mine decided to jump the rail road tracks with it. About the 3rd time as we landed, 2 rolls of quarters fall out of the dash by the glove-box!!
 
You guys are going to laugh at this one. So about 12 years ago when my friend bought his first Dart he had this funky smell in it. He couldn't get a date to stay put in his car for long with this god awful stench lol. We couldn't figure it out so we started to pull apart the interior. well lo and behold we find the source. behind the back seat was a tube of Jimmy Dean sausage. It must of rolled back there when the original owner hit the brakes after food shopping. The plastic tube was so deteriorated that when we went to pick it up it just burst open and let out a smell that is far worse than the smell of death! Both of us started to up chuck and continued to upchuck from the sound and sight of each other upchucking. It was something straight out of a cartoon or something! A story I will tell to the day I die.

I have found lot of interesting stuff over the years......
Ketchup tubes from McDonalds chewed up by mice, mouse skeletons, lots of change, and under the carpet from when the car was made, headliner clippings, extra screws, bolts and clips, one car was a bucket seat '74 Duster that had extra seat plates that were loose on the driver's side rear floor pan with paint over spray on them and the shadow of them on the unpainted floor pan below. They were obviously left there at the factory when the car was painted.
On my car in the restoration thread, on the lip under the dash between the glove box and radio, was a couple of unused hypodermic needles and in the glove box was the business card from the original owner.......he was a Veterinarian not a junky. lol.

I found a pair of socks once... They had fallen down the side of the trunk (at least I think they did) and ended up getting covered in plastic filler when someone "fixed" the rust. We took bats to the quarters because of al lthe filler we found, and this pair of scks dropped out with a big ball of filler stuck to them. Also found carcasses, X rated pictures (like from a camera - love to have know her) and various bits of life in a simpler time.
 
Found this bag of assorted cash in an impound car last year.

This ***** to funny ----^

I had an old Oldsmobile, that was a 1987? Cutlass. Turns out when I bought the car, for $250.00, got it home and began to clean it out, I found a TON of police records of a local guy....

See in New Hampshire, there was a guy, that was going around "New England Collage" snipping off the panties of the girls in the dorms. He was caught, and is today still in prison for these crimes, and had been warned on one occasion and was left off. Multiple convictions is why he now is serving his time. BUT this car, belonged to him, How do I know? It was all over the local news, and the paperwork found had is full name on it. AND in one of the truck drainage tubs on the side was a single pair of girls panties, hot pink as well. Now granted, this was then sort of sick, but now, my Wife and I laugh at it, as only us, would have bought such a car!!!! IN a year after buying the car, we were pulled over twice, for the "looks" of the car. WITH my wife in the passenger seat to boot! (Yeah, I was profiled) BUT, it was funny as once they had my I.D. they left me go....It was merely for the car type color, and a girl in the inside of the car, and the Cop actually admitted to me as much....We laughed, and on our way we went.....

I would scrub the car from top to bottom if you know what I mean... :sad1:


The "previous owner" may have "painted the ceiling" while he was out "doing his thing".... ;)
 
Found blank build sheets with instructions to start and stop the line including "last job" and one for a car that said "do not build".

One was dated on my birthday!

that's pretty neat. I wonder why they wouldn't wanna build that one.
 
I was working on a lady's heater in a dealership.. And behind the glove box I found an envelope with $1000 in it so I took it up to her, and told her where I found it, she took it from me then looked at me and said thank you...Then she proceeded to tell me she just bought the vehicle the week before for $1000...She said I guess I got the vehicle for nothing...The kick in the *** is she didn't even give me a tip.:mumum:...Nice huh...The other guys in the shop said to me your a fool you should of kept it...But how do you know...I believe honesty is the best policy...Bill:violent1:
 
I found a really nice Blue Marble handled Jack knife in the door of a brand new car.. After the customer complained of a rattle in the door after owning it for only a couple of days...He told me I could have it and I still have it to this day...Bill
 
Once in the bodyshop in a customers car we found a red velvet ring box(I'm guessing engagement ring) and a jar of Vaseline. The backseat was decked out with a leopard patterned car blanket and a silk pillow with the word "mother" on it. Had a good laugh over it!
 
Bought a 1963 VW baja bug when I was in high school. Rough but pretty much together. Repainted it and had an annoying rattle in the drivers door. Pulled the door panel off it one day and along with a bunch of leaves, out came a pot pipe! Funniest part is it had a guy's name engraved in it that was a few years ahead of me in school. The guy that originally put the car together smoked a lot so it was and still is pretty damn humorous!
 
When I rented out my storage lot to a towing company I would buy some of the abandoned cars to fix and resell the best thing I found was a WWII Japanese sword that was in very good shape but the worse thing was the skeleton of about a 40lbs dog in a box in the trunk of a car and it had been there so long that there was no smell, I buried the dog behind the shop I hope it is in a better place.
