I found dog food sitting on top of the air filter. It was at least a cup full. Don't know how a mouse could get it in there. I didn't find this out until I drove it home from Virginia to Cincinnati.

Mine came with extra headlights, like 5 climate controls, and a rediculous amount of bolts strewn all over the floor/in center console/in rear compartments

In my latest FC (the rust-free non-running one), I discovered a huge crease/dent in the floor where some dickhole must've either ran over something big and hard (lol) or jacked the car up from the middle of the floor like a retard. Popped out a body plug and let in a bunch of water, which soaked a bunch of the carpet padding and made it smell like ****. FFFFUUUUUU- I still have to pound that out and seal that plug back in...

Found a whole bunch of seeds and stems in the storage bin, like the PO had been throwing his trash in there for years.
Found a leather "RX7" keychain that I haven't been able to find another one of.

In my bonneville I found court papers for the PO, he apparently got pulled over with an expired dealer tag, was told they were going to tow the car, so he said he had to get his CD's, and the cop saw him grab his weed, LOL.
Also found a folder with bank account info in it from a new sign up, with a brand new check book, account numbers, pin, the whole deal.

In my sisters bonneville, as we were looking at the car before buying, we find a one hitter in the ash tray.
It was a middle aged mexican guy selling it, we just handed it back to him, and he's like, "Oh, thanks "

My vert came with a bunch of save the earth stickers on it.. bought it from an old lady that had met the Dalai Lama and some other famous religious guy

One on the front of the windshield said "don't buy old petroleum products" or something like that... seems odd for an rx7 owner lol

The one that interested my friends the most was the "Free Tibet" sticker on the trunk lid! For that reason my car was nicknamed the Lama, short for dalai lama.
I would have kept the sticker on but when I started getting highbeam flashes, honks and middle fingers thrown up at me on the highway from people driving by I took it off..

Then I found Lui Vuitton badges in the trunk i guess from luggage or something.. which again is odd.. if you could have seen the house she lived in

The Vert I got didn't really have anything cool in it....no bins for crap and what not, just some change under the seat

but the hatch I got had the bins crammed full of stuff:
Old car Battery
Rota centercaps
Fake, but VERY realistic looking and weighted gun, forget if it was a cap gun or airsoft gun, didn't actually work cause it was missing a piece on the inside, gave it to the Retired Army Colonel next door who helps me with stuff all the time to stick in a holster in his army jeep for show
A pad of paper with a few pages covered with very weird and profane poetry
Old FC radio
um.....I know there was more but I just can't remember it all.....oh some papers from a Kansas dealer or something like that, some mail and other odd papers etc...

Not found anything good in my FCs, but a friend and I parted out a Z28 a couple years ago and found 25-30 dollars in Sacajawea gold dollars, and another 10-15 dollars in silver change.

Same car had the seat belt cut and 2 disposable EMS respiration masks in it. Speedo was broken off pegged at 105 mph; our best guess is the guy jumped it through a guardrail into the edge of a river.
