Hello,

I was recently Having a look in my rear seat bins, There was a perfectly round object jammed in-between the panels with spot welds either side, It was painted..When i removed it the panels underneath were un-painted

Turned out to be 5 cent from 1967! must have gotten stuck there in the factory when the car was in production and painted over haha

What weird and wonderful things have you found? be it either old or new!


Milly

I found a sesame street character and some loose change in a fuel tank once, can't remember what date was on the coins but they weren't particularly old.

Confetti, confetti oh and did I mention confetti

I bet stuff in the fuel tank is pretty common with it being so easy for kids or whatever to drop things in, bet theres a few barbie dolls kicking about in them!
