Ok, before anything. My car was sitting in a buy here pay here lot for about 5 years before I bought it. ODO said 112k, but the speedo didn't work and this thing looks like it has a HELL of a lot more than 112k on it. When I came by to look at it, their was more cobweb in the engine bay than engine. Opening the rad cap revealed liquid rust.

Lets see here. When I first bought my car, the first mod I did was change the shifter bushings and the rubber boot above it. Upon removing the shifter cover thing, pretty much a full roll of toilet paper and 20 win dixie bags exploded all over my car. Don't know why they were there but their not anymore.

I pulled my interior to clean outside the car a couple months back. Upon removing the bins, I found about 13$ in change along with a empty box of tampons, 1 used and stuck, almost glued, to the underside of my bins. I had to pry it off with a screwdriver. Theirs still a stain.

Also during the interior cleaning, when I removed the rear carpet exposing the spare tire well and area behind the taillights, their was a massive wad of what seemed to be human hair clogging the 3 drain holes.

When my first motor swap happened back in Nov '08, I was stripping the new motor since im carb and don't need the EFI stuff. When pulling off the LIM, I found a jumbo crayons COMPLETELY blocking the aux ports. Someone pulled out the sleeves and stuck theses things in there. Had to use a drill tap kit and lots of soapy water to get them out.

When I changed my dash about a month or two ago, I swear a colony of rats must have crawled up in there and died from the heat sitting at the buy here pay here. I want to say I at least pulled 5 or 6 skeletons out from the inside of my dash as I was removing it. Their was more stuck, but they weren't in the way of removing anything so they stayed. RIP


And the FC full of white supremacist stuff is pretty scary. .45 rounds? Empty mags? O.o Crazy white people, always blowing stuff up and burning things...

How did you know it was a black woman's sock? :lol:

Good stories guys, I bet our old cars led some interesting lives.

Only thing I found worth mentioning where two Pokemon cards hidden in the driver's sun visor pocket. A japanese Balbasaur card and a halographic Venusuar. They remain there to this day. :icon_tup:

I found some shot gun shells, and a 260 piece craftsman tool kit, when I bought the car (a 88 convertible) the trunk didn't open, the ass clown that sold it to me must of forgot it was in the back, i would have given it back, but he lied to me about some stuff so I said screw you, im not saying I got a bad deal on the car, it had some bugs he "forgot" to mention, that didn't show up for a few months

You lucky bastard! :biggrin:


Yeah, trust me, I poured aircraft remover and it cleaned out the holes pretty well. Just poured some paint sealer behind it so it wouldn't strip off too much. It's been holding pretty well so far.

In my vert i found $20 in cash and about $15 in change. A life is good sticker. A gay pride sticker(the PO seemed a little different). A visor holder full of cds under where the top sits and a ton of fuses.

In my TII i found some screwed up cell phone with no dial pad. WD-40. A roll of shop-rags. Wires run for an amp. $12.98 in change. A full pack of duracell batteries that had leaked all over the jack compartment. A $2 bill in the visor that I replaced with my lucky $1. A ton of bulbs and fuses. An S5 fog light switch. And im still finding stuff.

Water in the vert fc... lots of it. Although I know there's that typical void in both my FC & FB that eats money, I still haven't found them. If I could, I plug the damn things.

The FB, however, had a colony of ants in it. Funny though, since the car sat in the garage for months before pulling the interior out. They were still alive, and I still couldn't find where any food was, so they must have been immortal ants. I sprayed some ortho in there, but I never found any dead ant carcasses. They must have moved out when they got disturbed.

In the cargo bin of my GSL-SE was a brake drum for an FB. That left me scratching my head for a while.

I also found about a hundred pounds of tweed in the fb as well, but it wasn't very hidden.

godofall 09-26-09 02:37 AM

I forgot to mention i found some Chevy truck wheel bearings that oddly enough they fit my truck, i haven't got around to installing them, and a crap load of car emblems, ford ones, chevy ones, amc ones, and dodge ones, and a flying spaghetti monster emblem, that one ended up going on my 87 c10

Yence 09-26-09 03:39 AM

A dead mouse inside the passenger side air vent, some '87 and '88 road tax papers and old coins glued in the little shelve under the radio.

duo2999 09-26-09 01:29 PM

i found a fake fingernail, change everywhere, amp wires in the door, used razor blades in the trunk area and what i think is coke or coffee residue that was in the cabin and all over the trunk area. bad spill i guess? oh well.

chinawa 09-26-09 03:46 PM

When pulling the carpet out of my 88 vert I found a small bag of what I think was cocaine & a $20 bill, but I live in Miami so maybe that's not that unusual
