What Have You Found Whilst Cleaning

[Monaro Pete]

Out a new vehicle?
I once found a gold ring that I weighed in for £50.00.
I've found shrapnel (coins) & quite a few over the years. No notes though.
I was told a story back in the eighties, when a guy I knew found a £50.00 note down the side of the seat of a newly purchased Rover which he paid £350.00 for so only paid £300.00.

So what have you found over the years?

My T2 keeps giving me tiny bits of Lego... I have had it 4 years, and every so often, I lift a seat, or clean somewhere, and sure enough, there will be a tiny bit of lego... I have no idea where it comes from, as in that time it has been cleaned several times, and I can not count how many times the seats have been put up and down, so I know it's not in the seams or joints of them.

Other than that, just the odd bit of change.

A stash of lead additive in the mg boot, 6 bottles of the stuff.

That's about as interesting as it gets I'm afraid

Think the previous owner got the wrong idea about upgrading the jack to a Hydraulic one that pumps.

Under the drivers seat of a nissan safari i found a massive bag of chinese money, wow i thought but it amounted to around 5 Nzdollars or £2.50 hehehehehehe. And i found the same in several others, aparently the chinese do it for good luck..

Bought a fiat x19 and found a video cassette behind the dash, it was a pretty bizarre home made porno of the previous owner wearing a very odd latex type suit thing. I rang him and told him i had the tape and he offered £50 for it, that was a win, only paid £175 for the car many years ago. Me and a mate still laugh about it now.

I haven't found anything but I suppose that's because I don't clean it :augie:

Oddly enough i think it was a betamax tape so only about 4 people in the world could have viewed it, luckily my mate was one of the 4 hehehehehehehe... Well unless it was copied to vhs...
