Interesting things you've found in cars

I found a old pack of Lucky Strike smokes in the header panel of my 1939 ford pickup. un opened. They were in the middle of a rats nest up there they are in ok shape. I think I am going to try to make a shift nub out of them. Make a mold and some clear resin. Good luck charm.

 

With Polish???

 

Well I found two un-used rubbers in the door henge wells and a couple of Wallace '68 bumper stickers and an old Harmonica behind the gas tank. Not sure that is a good place to keep your rubbers but I guess his wife didn't find them!!

 

This thread is great! Thanks for all the laughs.

 

I found a weird, glass straw with a red spoon on the bottom of it. A glass crack pipe? It was in the trunk of my stock model A I just bought.

 

I will start the bidding at $90.oo

 

My 36 Ford Three Window Sat Garaged Since 1962. When I Took The Old Tuck & Rolled Door Panels Off The Inside Of The Doors Were Filled With Los Angeles Times Newspapers From 1949 !

 

Anyone Remember My Ol Yellow 34 (5 Window Made In To A 3 Window Coupe? It Was Previously Owned By A Few Rebelious Rodders (wont Mention Names) . When I Took The Seat & Old Carpet Out Of The Car I Found A Ticket For A Long Beach California Strip Club And A Pair Of Red Panties!

 

HAMBer Lucky Strike may be interested...

 

in the locked trunk of my buick i found an old johnson sea horse out board motor, an old herters tackle box full of wooden lures and 3 new cards of wood and feathers lures.

 

I've found a lot of old fat guys who think they are still 21 Or maybe that's just me looking in the mirror

 

My wife reminded of an incident I tried to forget. We were visiting her aunt's house, the first time I ever met her aunt. I went to check out an old VW Beetle and when I opened the deck lid I found HUGE nest full of pissed off flying buzzing insects. I didn't stick around long enough to figure out if it was wasps or hornets.

 

my buddy's dad ran a crappy old junkyard and we used to go out there and break windows and stuff. found alot of porn and change. i found a nickel plated 44 mag in an old dodge van. his dad took it from me. probably was a good thing!

years later at a stereo shop i worked at we would "prep" cars for the local police auction. they brought in a 88 honda accord that was a pastel purple.
i was capping a bunch of bare wires when i saw some money stashed down under the carpet where it was cut out around the shifter. turns out it was 680.00 in 20's!! cha ching!!

 

i worked in a junkyard as a kid and in the trunk of a new totaled caddy i found 2 "bricks" of white powder the size of boat coushins,all wrapped up in plastic and taped up nice.i closed that trunk and never said a word about it for years,that car got crusched with that shit still in the trunk,that was in 1973.

I had bought a 64 nova for parts. In the trunk I found a skelton on a rabbit with what looked like a pancake on its head.

 

I think I just pissed myself!!!! Please someone photoshop the skeleton rabbit with a pancake on its head, PLEASE!

Today when I was taking my bumper gaurds off the rear bumper I found one of those plastic easter eggs inside of it. I shook it and excpted it to have old candy or change in it, but it had a nail in it. I guess someone wanted to kill there kids? My friend has a early 90's Geo Storm. We took it out to go hill jumping one day after it had sat for a few months. A few mils down the road I feel something rubbing aigaist my leg. I look down and there are about three snakes slithering around on the floor board!!!! I jumed out real fast! Screaming and cussing the whole time. We got his dad to shoot all of the snakes that were in it so we could get it back to his house. Has a few drain holes now and I have a few brown and yellow stains in my underware!

 

Funny shit here, I love it! FEDER and I bought a 50 Merc 4dr, broke the trunk in, and it was full of 50s porn. And sick stories from the owner (pased away} The daughter that sold it to us said "If you find any of my dad's stuff, I would like it.}......She would not like it,...... HELL we didn't like it!!!.....OLDBEET

 

This has got to be the best thread i have ever seen

reading this is way better than working

 

When I Got My 58 Ford The Front Seat Was Pretty Worn Out When We Replace It Change Fell Out The More We Kick It The More Came Out About 70.00 Dollers Worth

 

Just thought of one. I took a 69 442 apart once and there were wax "Coca Cola" cups from the GM concession stand on top of the front springs up in the frame. The ones that had the little turqoise colored stars & verticle pinstripes on them. Guess they ran out of spring insulators and folded up some cups & slapped up in there.

I bought an 86 grand marquis for 1500 bucks from an insurance company. It had been one of thier company vehicles that the salesman drove the hell out of. The glove box door was jammed and forced it open with a screwdriver, and (you guessed it) a bank envelope with 10 fresh 50's in it. I needed it too, cause that car turned out to be a POS

 

So apperantly I'm the only one with too much time on my hands today...

Hey Ray I'll Take my badge back now that your through with it

 

vintage Playboys and a REALY old can of hand lotion... no B.S.

 

I found a set of partials from someone with a busted smile in a plymouth minivan practice car at wyotech, A bracelet with tiki men carved from sort of bone in my aunts 62 vw bug, and a "memo from the desk of homocide investigations" in my 59 pontiac. Change is always a given. Oh and in the minivan was what could only be described as the vaporized bits of an owel.

 

Water. Lots of it. Seems some '62 Corvairs, if parked fwd on at a slight incline, like to flood when it rains. Best way to check for this is to just climb in and stick your foot right in that 2/12" puddle resting in the floorpan. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from but it made a great rain gauge. Sure, maybe it's not a dead body, but it was interesting at the time.

 

Some friends bought an 80's Caprice at a police auction for $60 just to drive and demolish. It had "Homicide" written in police chalk on the window. And had about 8 bullet holes on the roof, hood, and driver's door panel. Had a whole wardrobe of rip-off brand clothing in the trunk and a search warrant for fibers, hair, and black gloves under the front floor mat. Sad thing is that the stereo and speakers were worth more than the car! We were never sure what happened in/with that car, but the whole bad karma thing kept me far away from that car.
