blutopless2 - May 7th, 2004 at 09:11 AM

what is the strangest thing you have found in your car when you have pulled it apart?? From my 65 beetle i found "The Sun" newspaper from 1969. It was under the rubber floor mat.

I found a penny in my splitty and a ring and led zep tape in a Datsun 1600.

but for me the strangest was the four ladies who i found all of a sudden sitting on the back seat of the splitty while stopped at a set of traffic lights in george st late on a friday night.

me and my mate were sitting in his new car he bought off someone else, i lifted out his ash tray, and i said to him, "i this were you stash ya hooch", knowing too well that he did not smoke that shit, well i pulled out a bag of dope, obviously the person who owned the car b/4 smoked shit. We pissed ourselves, Gave the shit to his brother.

Hah, that reminds me..
I drove from my house (in the country when I was a kid) to the local town which is about 5 miles away on a gravel road.. It was a blowing wet, miserable night

Anycase, when I got to the shops I heard this wailing, crying sound coming from under the car.. I checked it out and there was one of our kittens perched on the stub axle, soaking wet.
The stupid bugger had jumped up there to get out of the rain and had gone for a ride all the way into town.. Bloody amazing.. Just imagine living through that!!!

a dead rat skeleton wedged in the rear seat springs of a '58 Beetle....

I found a handful of live bullets in my car.
It was an ex farm car. I also found a
horse shoe. Now Betsy has nothing except
carpet in her now.
Cheers Will.

56astro - May 7th, 2004 at 01:23 PM

Before I upholster the beetle I think I might put some sort of "time capsule" in it so that when the kids, or the kids' kids do a resto in it they come across, ummm

the 1st edition of VWMA!!


Anthiron - May 7th, 2004 at 01:48 PM

found little beetle car in the ash tray of '77 Golf, and it took some work to actually get it out.


Canni. - May 7th, 2004 at 05:52 PM

found pretty boring stuff in mine- old cigarrettes, leaves, dog hair, nails, ticket from engine test from LOONG time ago, toll roll (with rusty tools) best thing was the plastic left untouched on the back seat from the factory...

aggri1 - May 7th, 2004 at 10:42 PM

You guys all sound like potheads!

I only found boring stuff, including some old newspapers, fan belts, a few different wrenches, and an old jack: took me a while to figure out how that worked. There was also a heap of that horrid woody pine-needle-like crap that is on the rear/under of the seats, all over the place. I take it those are original seats (74 baywindow), because no-one would put such crappy seats in as replacements. The passenger one has kinda collapsed!

I also read somewhere an article about regular maintenance, what you're supposed to do. It said something about trying not to drop a spark plug, because the tinware makes it hard to fish out. If you do though, it advised, don't worry, just leave it there with all the other plugs dropped by previous owners. Guess what I found pulling an engine out of a pick-a-part Kombi? About FIVE spark plugs, all from the same cylinder. I had a good laugh at that.
