A lot of sticky coins (from soda spills), mumified french fries, and a few NOS trojans.

I found a $50 bill in the cover of the owner's manual. It's still there 15years later in case I ever need it.

I found a spare set of keys for my car. Apparently one of the former owners dropped them between the seat and the center console. Now I have three sets of Keys :-)

I found an Etch-a-Sketch under the passenger seat and numerous drywall screws holding various kickpanels on. I just love the way PO's improvise when fixing their cars. Sort of goes with the duct taped armrest.

Haven't found anything interesting in my C4 yet other than some old bolts under the hood.

Now in my 2 Camaros on the other hand....

2 Knives (in the same place in each car.) under the back seat on the passenger side in each car.... they were identical styled knives too.

That's what made it so interesting. 2 cars, 2 different owners, same style knife, in the same place.

The scary thing is I've lost them both since I took them out of each car.

I found behind the passengers seat 1 womans earing, missing its back. Of course I the found the back, in the rear storage compartment.

I wonder what happened, that just 1 was there?

Thankfully, I found them the same day I got the car, and the wife was helping me clean it up. Imagine what havoc that would have brought if it were found several months AFTER I brought it home.

No comedy on this one.

Found two dubiee's under the console of my '96 when I removed it to put in the new stereo. I threw them in the fire pit as soon as I found them.

No, really, I did... They were all dried up and brown looking from age.

On my 95 coupe that I no longer own, I found an Australian dollar coin from about the same year if I recall. The original owners were more well-to-do, but all I got from the 3rd owner were toothpicks and dirt.

I had a 69 Camaro once- it was originally from the greater Los Angeles area. That one had a Nixon Campaign button in Spanish under the back seat- I wish I still had it.

I've smoked old pot, it's not terrible...



I recently bought a beater pickup truck and found a full Budweiser pounder under the seat and several empty prescription bottles for Oxycontin with a rolled up dollar bill in the glovebox to complete the package!!! I threw away the bottles and spent the dollar but I'm leaving the Bud pounder in the truck in case of an emergency. As beat as the truck is I just might find myself needing that beer!!! I just wish it wasn't damn Budweiser, that stuff is gross.

only thing odd I've found in my 95 is when i bumped the passenger side of the dash and about a pound of dog food came rolling out from under it.

must've had some little visitors at one point!
