other What was the most interesting thing you found in your 02 during restoration?

I found $20 folded and stashed in the vapor canister slide in the trunk. Great hiding place. Perhaps too good....;-)

I've found many coins from the late 60s and 70s, M&M package(empty), a Lion King pencil.

Found a Chinese Silk Bag Envelop full of condoms stashed in the glove box behind the heater piping.  I was really hoping for cash...

A friend bought a 2002 but did not get a trunk key, and the car rode a little low in the rear.  We helped him open the trunk and found it full of porno magazines.  There was literally about 200 lb of them.  He is now referred to as the "Porno King"

Not a physical thing, but I was redoing the pedalbox in my 75 and found a bullet hole, shot from inside the car. Prolly a .25 or .32

Found a couple dollars shoved into the back of the ashtray.

I found a fully intact wasp underneath the fold of the left rear window seal as I was chipping it away because the soft rubber turned to plastic... Scared the crap out of me, that's for sure!

NickVyse and danco get my vote for best archeological finds: guns, knives, and drugs! Yes!

Since I am the original owner I didn't find any thing interesting but I did find a long lost sword off of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figurine that my son lost and looked for, for several years.  I did return it to my son who is now 30 years old.  He was grateful.

This came in the back of my old Tii....

This was not in my 2002 but my '85 911.  I had the seats out to refinish them when I dug this out from the hinges.

A little cliche perhaps, but...

 

The two most interesting things I found during the course of re-doing my '02: Knowledge and friendships. Cheesy, but true.

This glass vial fell down and out of the headliner of my BMW 2002 turbo, while I was preparing it for new headliner and roof work. I placed it on the steering wheel, and took a picture of it. The car came from Tokyo, and clearly this was part of the Tokyo party culture. I also found a small piece of paper underneath the carpeting, with a Santa Claus with Japanese script surrounding it. A little bit of the Japanese anthropological culture. It made me wish that I could eat sushi in Tokyo, and experience other parts of Japanese culture.

Sincerely, Peter

Today's find - Rather than replace the washer hose, just splice it with a piece of toilet water supply pipe.
