    When I was a kid my dad bought me a beat up '65 Barracuda that had been stolen then recovered from a sherrif's dept.  I found a spoon that had been used to cook drugs.

    In the Challenger we found tons of stuff.  Hardhats, jumper cables, lots of parts, some go to the car some don't.  Ther was white powerd all over the back carpet.   We were afraid it was rat killer dust but it turned out to soap.

    I have a 1964 Lincoln continental convertible.  The car was parked in a junk yard in 1974 up in Leadville, CO.  I got the car and opened the rear trunk which hadn't been opened since at least 74 and there was a poetry book that was dated 1974 and a few university papers from here in Colorado. 

     I found a brown recluse in the challenger I purchased last year!!  Oh, and a bunch of chevy malibu parts in the same car. 

      Havn't ever found a single build sheet in over two dozen cars I have owned over the years.  Not one!!  drives me crazy!

    Good to see you on, Steve.  How are you doing?

    I feel good.  I just take my medicines and watch how much I exert myself.  Bryce almost has the front end done.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Besides MULTIPLE problems with my car, the only interesting thing I found was a 1969 penny with purple over-spray on it. It was down where the rear wiring harness runs down the driver's side rocker panel, and the inner panel.

    I found a bracket for a gas saver gauge that my dad still has, a ruler, and some spare change. In the truck since the owner couldn't get it open we found a old craftsman tool boc that had a clamp on over load shock spring and a card filled out to get a engraved nametag for a tool box or mail box that was never mailed.

    The best thing we found was a clamp on registration holder on the visor that had the registration of my dad (second owner) and a bunch of regs for the 3rd owner, plus a record of oil changes from my dad.
