I found about 100 receipts for McDonalds stuffed into the driver's side sun visor, and on the passenger side I found a hospital bill for open heart surgery from some hospital in Kentucky. Ironic eh?

There was a bottle of water in my spare well. Spare was there as well Have to clean the surface rust sometime. Found a sample of weird stuff (sth like silver dust in a plastic tube) at the door panel. Not surprised, previous owner is a biomed grad student, close to what I am doing. Never found out what it was, threw it away -some stuff can be nasty. He also had a chinese lucky charm (sth like gold chinese stamped on red cloth) hanging on the vent of the passenger's door. Kept it cause it's original and asian :P (not jdm). Also, all the receipts since day one in the glove box, manuals etc...

that just means that your car was converted to manual. i don't have to push in clutch either...even on a manual ecu.

my coupe came with the original window sticker, nothing more then change under the center console. The hatchback had a dead mouse under the driver side seat, a spare CD deck and car battery charger in the trunk, and receipts and expired warranty for the window tinting that was done in Florida that was in the glove box. Oh and a gift card for aeropostal that had like $3 left on it.

I know how I said I didn't find anything. Well, I was putting things back together in the sil40 and I happend to take a peek where you take the little coin holder thing out and I found a pipe of some sorts!?! Idk what kind it is though.

It's wooden and has a bowl the size of about a bb, and I didn't see a carb. Anyone know what that might be?

The old lady I bought my 91 from had a little not pad in it with everytime she had put gas in it. It had the amount she put in with the milage and then the caculated gas milage. All the way back to 95. She told me she was the second owner. She freakin loved my car. She even named it.

i was venturing in my s13s glovebox, and found an old folded piece of paper with a list of upgrades. apparently he was going to do an sr swap, as well as buying either 5zigens or volks. haha he also wrote down the other basic stuff as well as how much itd cost him. too bad it stayed bone stock

lol this is like the only thing i found from the previous owner, aside from a can of altoids and a pair of vicegrips so leave me alone
