A buddy of mine worked at a GM dealership back in the 70s. This guy brings back his newly purchased car saying there is a rattle noise in the dash. After hours of looking they found a steel washer hanging inside the door post by a length of fishing string.

A long time ago I bought a clapped-out 64 Dodge 440 that looked like a porn shop inside. Condoms, both new and used, a couple "toys", magazines, and a roll of film which I couldn't resist getting developed. It had an interesting mix of pictures on it, some were what appeared to be nice family Christmas pictures, and there were about a half dozen pics that I wouldn't be allowed to post on this forum.

I found a Craftsman knife with dried blood from the tip of the blade to the handle under the seat of a $200 beater I bought in SW Detroit.

I've found a trunk full of gaskets, and dug out an old medicine bottle from the back seat of one of my '34 Pierces. But that's about it other than the heavy stash of Midol I found in my newest daily driver, the most I usually find is rust .
