got a good laugh

When I was tracing wiring for trailer socket. Was checking fuses and happened to look down. I spotted a scraper I bought brand new when working on front of motor. Have been trying to find it since then. It had fell down on the front bumper brace and wedged itself there. All that time and no rust. Didn't even find it when I replaced alternator. wow

Love it when missing tools come home. I have duplicates of several due to losing, repurchasing, then having it come home later on. If you work on machines of any type, ESPECIALLY an automobile, it's bound to happen.
