Nothing inside yet!

I did find a piece of metal in the glovebox. Looks like a bracket of some sort. Not sure what it goes to. Might be battery. In the bed I found Dirt, leaves, wood ( from the bed ) wood covering the wholes from the missing wood in the bed. A couple of pop cans and an old fuel filter.

The military police found a dime bag in the drivers side cab corner once...hence the previouse owner's nick name.
I think he smoked every time he worked on it. If you were to work on it you would understand why I suspect this.

since the truck was my parents truck before me....hmm about 89 cents under the floor padding, a pencil, about 1/2 gone, and my dads machette (the long azz knife) where the jack on the right side was suppost to be.. I asked my dad and he said i dont need a jack, the tire iron was to small, so he put the knife in there ((hmm i was kinda speachless after that, for a bit))

so far i've found a ton of crap. a maybe 12" long piece of 8x8 lumber was in the front fender pocket (under where aux battery would go), and a piece of wood trim complete with nails in it, along with a lead pipe and a container of after bite (makes bug bite itch go away). Inside, I found the little build tag that goes on the seat, a glass jar of bar's leaks, an old pull top can of prestone antifreeze, a can of 10w30, a glass jar with 3 fuel filters in it, a 1973 map of minnesota, and a sticker from the LeSeur county fair (in minnesota), and a strange piece of wire that has a loop on one end (like you'd stick your finger in it) and the other end is hooked. There was also about 30 feet of spare 18 ga. wire wrapped around the tranny shifter, and about 30 more feet masking taped to the back of the dash.

lol I'm only 19, and underage drinking is illegal

i've never seen an old peel top beer or pop can, I'm a little too young for that...all of 'em I've seen are the usual pop and click variety.

scratch that, I have seen some of those old cans...i used to work a recycling center in scouts, and some weird people would bring those in by the truckload...makes you wonder where they've kept 'em all these years?

I found ...

... a few pics of the p.o. girlfriend in her birthday suit (that means naked, for us slow people... lol) in one of my trucks. Those might be good for something some day. lol ... Other than than, just some misc tools, empty oil bottles, misc broken parts. Just the ussual stuff. oh, and the last truck I got probably had abt 100 pencils and pens everywhere. Thought that was strange.

wow, what DIDN'T I find in my truck....

A Huge Nail Puller, pair of knee pads, eight pairs of unused rubber gloves, two axe handles, a hammer, two slotted screwdrivers, a 9/16 wrench, a new fuel pump, a brake lamp flasher, some other flasher, several gaskets, one spring jacket, half of a winter jacket, two stocking caps, a baseball bat, about ninety feet of various rope, a length of chain about 2', three spare tires, a five gallon pail, some safety goggles, and I can't remember anything else...

the strangest part is that aside from the bucket, and tires, all of this stuff was hidden ( under stuff, behind stuff, etc).

hey stateamind, let's see those pitures!

2 things of rolling paper shoved in the spring under the seat, a bag of chips, 10 or 12 old marb. cig packs, 4 bottes of brake fluid, an old wrench, A McDonalds toy, 2 or 3 eaten bags of chips, a stolen voltage tester thing, 2 busted 6x9's, 2 non working radios, and tons of leaves. All of this was under the seat except the wrench and brake fluid.

Seke69, are you sure the PO wasn't a serial killer or something? Maybe a hitman for the mafia? LOL
