The only thing I found in the 40 pickup in the pile of rust and acorns under the seat was a 1942 quarter.

 

I found a dump pass from 1972, The spair key for the truck, And a funny looking peice of metel that says worlds fair stamped into it. Registration cards dating from 1964 to 1978

 

Sure have, I have a can of Huberd's on my shelf right now!

 

an old RC soda bottle, a pepsi bottle and a very old Coors beer can. O boy o boy!!

 

Pictures of naked women glued to cardboard with string attached, like a christmas ornament, and a bumper sticker claiming his harley is protected by a pit bull with aids.

 

in my 48 f-1

I found a old chevy key under the floor mat ,that I put back in the truck for a good keep sake

and part of the old rubber /hair floor mat under a newer floor mat

 

Many years ago I owned some tractor-trailers. I bouught a long nose Peterbuilt and took it to the west coast right away. When I got home I started cleaning it up with the help of my better half, and in the sleeper under the matress was a very large bra that my wife found. Good thing I had only owned it for a week!

 

Is it a blue and white can with an old lace up hightop shoe on the label as I described? I'm wondering just how old this can is???

Sounds like the can I have. Mine is old as well, but like 20 years or so.

yea i still have some laying around somwhere i used every once in awhile but that was about 6 months ago

 

Well, not nearly as exciting as everyone else, but I found two older (and empty) PBR tallboys - not old enough to have the really old pull tabs though. Also had the registration strapped to the steering shaft from a Chevy Biscayne out of Nebraska. Numerous dash ***** and a choke cable. Have not gotten down deep into the corners of the cab yet.

 

the only thing thats really worth mentioning is a really clean 4 barrel manifold for a y block....

 

thats whats funny about those cab corners it looks like a good spot to keep things but then you forgget that is there and the person who restores finds it a little time capsule

 

I got my Panel from down in the hood next to a burned out house. It had been there for a while and was being used by the druggies for business transactions. It had a piece of foam and couple of grundgy blankets, empty bottles of cheap booze, used condoms, burned up and broken bits of crack pipes, used lighters, old wrappers, and funny little seeds everywhere. During the six months from seeing it to getting it the cowl vent disappeared, both door latches broken, pass door glass busted out, rear door handle ripped out, both rear windows busted out, and the drive shaft disappeared.

Jeff,

I hope you are using a lot of bleach during your resto!
