When i pulled out my heater I found confettie from some trickster that had stuffed it in there a very very long time ago. That really is the prank that lasts for years. Who ever used this as their wedding car would more than likely be grandparents now. |

The last Minimatic I bought (which had recently survived the big Glenorie bushfire) had a very dead rat under the driver's seat. Not smelly though, it was dried out to blazes.

I just pulled the dash cards out of my '64 Mini and found a six-pence coin (1956). So is my Mini worth more that yours? |

Once i found a seringe needle under the back seat of my old HG Premier. Had a small feeling i'd find something Nasty after meeting the people i'd bought it off, And reading in the paper a few years before they used to run drugs with it! |
