Summer of 2003 when we bought our E24 BMW, I found a checkbook in the little hidden impossible to find door cubbies. The dates were from the early 90s. Bet someone wasn't too happy about missing that, back in the day.

I found a still-valid $45 money order under the spare tire of a Sunbird I had just bought for $100. I cashed it.

hahaha. LMAO! Yeah of all the things ive found in parts cars or cars in general, this takes it. My first car looked like someone was storing mcdonalds frys under the drivers seat. The poopy car had about ten bucks in change and all of it was oxidized real bad. IM still in shock, i thought it was play money, i almost told her brother to keep it, them im like WTF! One of my friends had bought a jetta at a police auction and one of the switches in the consule never did work right. One day he decided to pull it out and found a 9mm gun stuffed up under there! Crazy.

Not one I bought but I went to do a clutch on a Cavalier (IIRC) and when we pulled the console 3 ziplock bags full of various illegal substances fell out. In the glovebox there was another stash along with a few thousand dollars in cash. ATF came and there were about 20 of them hidden throughout the shop to arrest the people when we called to tell them they needed to come get something out of the car!

Cars I bought? A thong (a nice one!), and about 2.00 in change, never get 400 dollars worth of lucky!

I found about $17 in change in my 86. I can't wait to pull up the carpet to find some more (I dug as far as I could from the e-brake hole, I'm sure there's more in there)
