    Cool find. All I could find in my car was loose change and about 40+ years of registration slips in the glove box.

    I found a Craftsman 1/4 drive socket set in one of my cars and a roach, not the insect, in the '57.

    When I removed the back seat from a 1933 Franklin I used to own, I found an ancient box of condoms. I sold the car, but kept the condoms. How often do you find a box of condoms with a 1931 copyright date on the box?

    I bought a 61 falcon for 300 and found 500 in the trunk under the mat.
    Turns out the nice old lady's husband was planning on leaving her right before he died. That explained some other things I found in the car also.
    Wish I had a *****en cooler though.

  25. With the $500 you didn't expect to find, you should be able to buy a really nice vintage cooler:)
