What's the strangest thing you've found...?

Our cars have been just about everywhere, and if they could talk the things they'd tell us. I'm curious to know what the oddest thing you've found in, around, attached to you car?

 

I found a set of ceiling fan blades behind the passenger rear seat kick panel.

 

A small magnet shaped like the state where it came from, Indiana!!
It was stuck to the shock tower under the hood with more inside on the dash, not really as strange as it was cool, BTW the one under the hood is gonna be there from now on.

 

some robot action figure under the back seat, then he fell down in the air vent on the dash when my dad was driving

 

A live cat...

Had the interior out of the car while I was working on my transmission swap, and had them passenger side window rolled down about half way, and it was raining(car was covered by the carport so no water was getting inside).
I opened the door to get something out of the car and the neighbors declawed cat bolted from the trunk, tried to claw the h#ll out of me and ran off... I had to go back in the house, clean my pants out because it scared the bejesus out of me and have a beer to laugh about it.

 

In my green 73, I found maps and coupon books for downtown LA, some matchbooks from places in Long Beach, and Mexican money under the carpet.
In my brown 73, I found mice in the headliner.....

 

A 70's Arizona Welfare/Food Stamp card from the original owner.

 

Mouse nests in just about every cavity. Air cleaner, ac ducts, seats, head liner, ... and a snake skin in the radiator support. That snake evolved from hunting/gathering to live stock farming.

 

I found a local phone book...from 1959. It was really cool to see all the old ads and phone numbers. Back then you could dial a number using only 5 digits.

 

I found two 20 dollar bills under the carpet of the sprint. Behind the rear panel I found a notebook with writings from someone who was obviously mentally disturbed. There were various pages from this notebook stuffed under the carpet as well.

 

An old package of Trojans. VERY old. And unused. We can surmise that the car either belonged to an over-optimistic teenage boy OR a fella hoping for some roadside action.

 

I found behind the back seat '70's McDonalds "Hamburgler" toy and a bubblegum trading card Charlies Angels of Farrah Fawcett saying "Aw, c'mon Charlie"..!

 

Other than a carpri sun box hanging from my antenna after school...not much but all the original warranty ID #s and info and some mice!

 

I found three 7/8ths combo wrenches under the driver seat in a junkyard Mav.

What do you use a 7/8ths wrench on in a Mav? ... front suspension?

I could even kind of understand two wrenches together, but three !?! ... I only have two hands myself.... maybe the last owner lived too close to the nuclear power plant.

PS ... 2500 posts .... whoo-hoo ....

 

Oh yeah....I found a bunch of medical needles in a plastic baggie stuffed up above the heater box in a car I bought off of a drug addict.
