Over the years of fixing, parting out and general disassembly of these I've found a few interesting things in nooks and crannies that don't belong or neat details in various locations that are usually lost to the years. What oddities have others found?
** I have found many extra new bolts and screws under the carpet (I'm sure we all have) but oddly enough I have found several coat hooks too, but never the color of the interior of the car they were found in.
** I finally found the paint code written on the inside on this 77 Charger I just parted out. I have heard this was supposed to be a common thing but never saw one until now. I have seen other markings that I don't know what they mean too.
** Here is something I have only seen a handful of times (bet never on cars, just trucks). The leaf spring ID decal. The fact that any of these lasted more than a few years is amazing on anything just given their location. But this one is clear as a bell, kinda. Also from this 77 Charger. If the build sheet was readable it would probably match up with a line on there.
** Here is one that is pure speculation as to how/why this got here. It's a Cordoba coin that was on the inside of the radiator support of this 77 Charger. It looks like it was put there before the radiator went in.
