A large bag of very old, dry product associated with the first thing, found underneath the console of an LJ Torana a mate had bought for parts.

About $20 in coins under the back seat of my Camira when I removed the seats to fit new covers. They had been there for so long that some of them were
one cent coins. Every coin had to be cleaned on the bench grinder wire brush. Yay!!! Free covers.

Found 2 Australian gold souvereins in amongst the parts bins that came with one of the cars I bought. I traded them in for $380 bucks and the dealer
told me take a second look to see if there was any more.

Helped a mate pick up a boat once when a friend of the owner turned up all flustered the boat was on the move. We were just about to head out the
drive when he arrives waving his arms like a mad man. Stops us, says he has some stuff stored in the boat.
He jumps into the front compartment and drags out two huge bright orange cases. We didn't want to know what they were. Turns out he was a drug dealer
and storing his gear in his mates old boat. Unaware the friend was. Then we find out it was worth half a mil and he was on the run. Was a warant for
his arrest. Was Meph in the cases. Nice guy.
So glad he turned up when he did. Imagine we hit the street with the boat attached and then got pulled over by the cops. Would have been fun
explaining that one.

in my bus i've found a toy plane and a plastic dagger behind the trim in the back. A broken up cigarette lighter, a pen, and a toy plastic machine
gun in the main heater pipe. (must've been shoved down the floor vent). And my personal favourite... a toy McDonalds hamburfer that transforms into a
robot... i havent seen one of them since primary school hehehe
