I found a lot of pens and pencils, quite a bit of change, a lighter, a paperclip, some drywall and concrete screws, a Cat Stevens Greatest Hits tape (looks broken) and a flier for local AA chapter meetings.

Was stripping out the interior of the project car and found literally like 20 pens. lol. I kept going and found s toungue ring. arg. that was kinda nasty.

But best of all, pulled the carpet up to find a bunch of rat turds. lol. yeah.

Still haven't looked in one of the side compartments in the trunk, ones really clean, and the other one is terribly dirty. Someday ill stick my hand down there and see if it's the rat or not. lol.

I have found tools in every 240 I've ever owned, and at a recent trip to the junk yard, I found an old road bike stuffed into a trunk and a case of water in an other trunk, I ended up buying the bike for $5 and we drank all the waters when we found the case

I found some real estate paperwork, some sunglasses, a bunch of pennies, a fuel container, a toyota speaker with trim, a title to some Pontiac Grand Prix, original owners manual and to top it off a receipt from 1996 that some previous owner purchased a longblock assembly at some mechanics when the car had 70K on it. I got the car with 150K. So chances are the motor is in really good shape. Its my daily driven S13. My S14 never came with anything but factory goodies like original shifter, cd player, tools, spare, owners manual, keys etc.
