What's the coolest/creepiest thing you've found in your car?

I'll kick it off.  When I went to retrieve the car from the barn in Illinois, I found a dead cat on the air cleaner.  Not a freshly dead cat, but it wasn't exactly mummified yet either.  It was ripe.

Then tonight, I crawled under the car to poke around.  and I what looked like a mouse skull peeking out at me from the inside of the frame rail.



A little farther up, where the hole in the frame rail is, I started poking around the hole and found a nice mouse nest inside the frame.  I can't believe it rotted there.  Surely mouse piss should have preserved that bare metal right.

I had a 1971 V code Charger R/T that had a dead frog in the oil pan....Car was stored for years with the timing chain cover off, but I still have no idea how it got in there

Had a cicada killer (big a$$ hornet) fly out of my crush can when I pulled the wheel off for the 3rd time in 4 days, musta crawled in there when I was under the dash then I covered it up

Not my mopar but my daily driver one day I opened the car and the entire interior was coated in spider webs. The car was almost brand new with ~3000k on it.

My fiance had left her car sitting for about 3 weeks and ants got in it... Not fire ants just those little black ants. We would be driving around and just see them everywhere. I turned the Ac on and they were even flying out of the vents!! We ended up finding a very hot asphalt spot and parked it there for a couple days in 100+ heat. Idk if it killed thenm or not but I haven't seen them!!!

Not a mopar story but,  I got this 82 mazda pro 7 racecar that lives under a cover on my side yard when I'm not racing it.  I had a BIG black widow living in the drivers side suspension/wheel well area all through last season. Every time I'd prep the car for a race weekend the little booger would hide up in the spring perch out of reach so I'd just clean the webs out and let her enjoy the ride.  Four events she lasted, funny part is there was always a three foot long web tail full of rubber marbles and crap from the track hanging out and waving out from my rear bumper as I was racing.

Been bit twice over my life time by these and they don't really scare me,  they ended up dead not me lol.

I found a couple of black widows in the rear drum brakes on a GTO once , no biggy , I have no fear of spiders & they ended up dead too .

Opened the hood on a Plymouth Duster I had when I was a kid and found a HUGE opossum with its mouth wide open hissing at me! I put the hood back down and called my dad. He took care of it real quick.

There are black widows under my truck right now.

Found a piece of skull in a totaled Vette I was taking apart once.

 I have woken up to Bird eaters, ( bigger than my hand like the ones chryco is probably familiar with there in Panama) hanging off my sleep bunk bug netting on military duty,.. we hunted them with K-bars and moonbeams at night. Being scared of the little bastards depends on the situation. I had one ( big black widow ) shakin it web about an inch from the side of my face in a Honey Bucket porto crapper on military duty in california. I jumped out of that crapper quick with my BDU's around my ankles.

For me, it was when I took off the driver's side door sill plate to run wiring for my after-market stereo. I had to lift the carpet a little, and low and behold down inside that groove where you stuff the wiring was a 1969 penny. It even had Plumb-crazy over spray on it(my car was originally plumb-crazy).
