....... interesting in your Bay?

I mean the sort of thing you find when you have the seats out or side panels out, stuff thats been there years and years :lol:
Had my Interior out last December.

Found a load of old 70's US coins.
A US Polling card, estimated to be from the 70's 8) .
And a few old Chewing gum wrappers, again US (Made one into a keyring) :mrgreen:
No spiders though :mrgreen:

Wouldn't have found anything in the bottom of my doors. The only thing holding them together at the bottom was black "**** to a blanket" tape. :lol:
 
I had loads...... When I first got it I found a load of US coins in the ashtray. When I stripped the interior out I found a load of fast food wrappers from an independant burger bar in Sacramento. But my favorite was in the sink unit.....it appears the US PO was a golfer and I have a chewed up golf pencil, a golf round scorecard, a couple of tees and a ball marker from. Spanish Bay 'Pebble Beach' golf course.

With the exception of the fast food wrappers I have stored the other bits in a tin that will stay with the van.
 
I found the usual coins ect, then found a cutout switch, then a key in a magnetic tin uder the tub of the passenger seat, its a VW key but strangly dont fit my bus :? that was after 2 years of ownership lol

Hey guys, how you all doin ??, been off the pooter for a while, been getting stuck into the van a lot, you know two steps forward then six back, I donn`t know if this is unusual but I never seen them before,,,,,,,,, I found a couple of spanners under the seats in Madonna (My donor) A.F. on one end and metric on the other end both double rings, now I want someone to tell me they is common as muck or worth a fortune,, let it be the last one :shock: :lol: :shock:
 
When I stripped the 68 Cal import last Jan found US coins under the seat and a unused (still in packet) US condom dated 1986, :shock: made me feel ill :oops:
 
Found a bee hive behind my headlight bowl,which ive kept,and a massive maggot thing buried im mud in my roof ,neither were too pleasant !!!!! :?
 
I found a nice large flat blade behind the rear seats. A piece of masking tape on the inside of a panel dating back to 1984 which is the year I was born so thats cool.
 
A prayer card from the funeral of the old lady my bus was named after from the previous owner. He must have actually went to the funeral in the bus :shock:

:ghoul:

oh, and lots of crosses and religious paraphenalia.
 
I had a microbus from Arizona and "found" 2 inch long cactus thorns at the rear of the engine bay when I was cleaning it out...... all stuck very painfully in the ends of my fingers :eek: :shock:
 
my bus is from the states and when i started the resto i found big lumps of black glass in the bottom of each cab door :shock:

i thought my luck was in and had found a stash :lol:

loads of coins and a car park ticket for a park in utah
 
Lots of interesting stuff - coins, match books, prayer book pages, credit card bills, Nevada casino stuff (Vegas and Reno) ... I think he was a gambler in debt seeking redemption. A half melted photo of the bus in front of a house with a boy stood next to it, some firecrackers and a Neil Young (Harvest) cassette.

Plus all the usual sticky gunk, dirty spoons, lolly sticks, *** butts etc etc .... :?

I know someoen (on here) that discovered two guns in a bus they brought over! :shock:
