what is the dodgest thing...

what is the dodgest thing that you have found in a vw you have just bought. mine would be the arreil in the bug im driving it is just a piece of coax shoved up in the windscreen pillar

I bought a 69 Kombi a while back and found industrial wall plaster in the base of both doors. I think the idea was to hide the cancer. The funny thing was the area was well prepared and the paint applied correctly.

The things people do.:beer😘beer:beer:repuke:beer

Bolt heads for the top point of seat belts right through the door pillar...so the head is on outside surface of the pillar :cry

This is a common thing...I've seen it on others:jesus

Thank goodness they are now gone!!:party

6 hollow tip .22 bullets and 4 instruction bookletts to condoms :duh someone was up to some weird things in my car :duh

Very freaky find pyro!!

yeh the instructions didnt worry me it was the hollow tips, as i think there ilegal :blush me security guard uncle said they called cop killers because they got more chance or periceing a bullet proff vest :blush

although im pretty sure the people before me just used them for hunting with out realiseing

....hope so:sandrine

You'd almost have had to do an exorcism before you got in the car...to get rid of any bad energy...if it had any that is......:alien

lol i had to do that when i got it with airfreshners i think the bad energy was in the form of a smell :vader

thats some strange stuff.but because i pull alot apart to paint i have found some strange things,but drug using matrial most popular,old hash pipes,cones,bongs,the good old 70s...and the odd magazine filling rust holes etc...
oh yeh the best is the money under seats,under seat runners...
cheers...............

come on that can not be all the dodgey stuff

2 dodgy's....

Bought a 62 Kombi that looked great, but when I got under it later the owner had cut the rust out of the floor and shoved handfuls of fibreglass resin into their place.....but they were huge globs, not even smoothed out...about cricket ball sized. Argh. Didn't pass QLD roadworthy.

Then we later bought a 65 bug...cleaning out the brake system we found concrete in the brake fluid reservoir, as well as two nails and a rivet. Never really worked that one out.

a chefs knife with a broken tip and MY(first AND last) NAME ON IT......:duh in a baja I pulled apart............................and some coins.

festy came with a yukkie metallica tape in him and a plastic rabbit....:duh

cop killers? I don't think so. they were .22 cal hollow points right? You can still buy them and are designed to shatter on impact with bone or hard muscle to create more damage insidethe target. They actually penetrate worse than solid shot and would be less effective in penetrating a bulletproof/flak/kevlar vest. and if it's a .22 round, even though everyone underestimates them (more people in the world are killed accidentally by them than any other calibre cartridge) as they will travel 1-2 kms and still be lethal they would never penetrate a bulletproof vest. your talking about a bullet .22 of an inch in diametre and even though it's moving at high speeds it doesn't have enough inertia to punch through. So no, whatever your mate said, as far as I know he's wrong. I'm not trying to be rude and say "ha ha! your wrong!" or anything, just trying to get the facts right.

on the subject of firearms though, I found in both my Dub and my brothers one LIVE .22 high velocity rounds in the fuse holder with alfoil wrapped around them! Although both the dubs did come from the same owner and he didnt' strike me as the brightest person. Later on we found two packets of .22's under the back seat so we used them for rabbit shooting.

heheh i just rang him and told him :P i even gave him the url of the post 🙂 that'll teach him for dribbling junk 😀 thanks for the RIGHT info, i dont feel so bad now.

in my 1960 bug.... got the same seat belt anchorage situation as jen... hope to one day fix them up but can't afford it atm...

at some time my car was involved in a fender bender...and I now have two different headlight lenses...and the front fender now doesn't quite meet the running board...

the original back bumper is missing....was replaced with a bumper for a later bug with the original accerssory overriders welded in...very special 😀

My Race Baja had a Squash racket under the Parcel shelf.

My white baja had 2 love letters under the carpet.
(Strange because he was married)

My Land cruiser had a Porn Mag under the passenger seat and a Sidchrome Quarter Drive Socket set in the back under a rear seat.

I popped the cover off the Steering wheel on my old Truck once, because I was bored while waiting some where. When I turned it over it said NOSEY C... hahaha like they knew I would look there one day.

And my XR8 had nothing. But I think it belonged to the Mafia.
Because the previous owner was an Italian and lived near Griffith.
(maybe I'm getting carried away) 🙂





Yeah and 22 Hollow points, I agree with Boozer ...........

I like buying old kombi campers theres always bits and pieces hidden in the cupboards Ive found socket sets a new block splitter tools and heaps more
