The Things You Find In A Car

Just One More Coat
I did a few cars over the weekend and the tings that people have in their cars.
Lotto tickets from 3 years ago, candy wrappers under the seat, coins all over the place. I swear, there must be 10 bucks in my shop vac. Biz cards are every where, with receipts from everything from the grocery store, hotel bills parking lots, doctors offices, etc.
In some cars I fill up a large grocery bag with stuff


What have you found in cars that strike you as odd
 
Roll(s) emphsis on the s of those funny cigerattes you make yourself
Porn mags and tapes
Dirt, dirt and more dirt!
 
I aways hope to find some ladies panties but they has never happened.........LOL

Here is a car that I did and what was on the rear view mirror
 
I used to have a client with "his and hers" Bentleys -- Ya know the ones that "depreciate $30 thousand dollars (each) when we drove them off the lot" as she used to say. Well, he liked to roll his own "big funny cigs" and musta smoked them like regular ones. From what one of my fellow employees said, it was "the chronic." :lmfao I used to collect all the butts (they would be everywhere), then clean out the ash try and neatly place them all back in it. They always tipped quite well -- I guess it was because to this day, I still maintain their personal anonymity.

Best find for me however was when cleaning out my Shop-Vac after a busy two days of detailing about 10 years ago.... a loose 3/4 carat diamond. I asked all those who had their cars done if they had ever lost a stone in any of their rings/earrings etc. (all 14 of them) and no one stepped up -- chaaaaching!!!.

From then on, I always check the contents of the vacuum prior to and as I empty it.
 
Whenever I vacuum out my Grandparents cars I'll usually find an orange somewhere. They really like oranges and they roll out of the bags all the time. :lmfao
 
hehe I won't go into too much detail (no pun intended) but I did find a "marital aid" under the seat of a car I was doing as a favor... thank god for tongs and gloves!
 
wow......... i found a bottle a mayonaise in a car once. i hope it wasnt spoiled, because i put it back in the car after i was done......
 
My brother works for a Ford dealership and has told some classic stories of what they found in cars!

Customer complained that the cartrige for the 6 disk changer was stuck and wouldn't come out! It was stored in the center console. He opened the console only to find ants and such crawling all over the place...turned out the kids had droped all kinds of candy inside! (not warranty work) and the customer wanted to know why it wasn't!

While working on another car... not sure what the problem was but found a tool for which women pleasure them selfs! My brother said they called the customer and asked that she remove all of her "Personal" belongings before they would work on the car!

He says they find peoples drug hiding spots all the time usually filld w/ a substansial stash!

Customers whos kids put change in ths CD player slot!

some classic storys!
 
heheh - I bet that is a funny scene, you come back to pick up your car and the mechanic is higher than a kite AND charging you 90 an hour!!!
 
How about a used condom"oh yeah they heard it from met". Also found a handgun in the glovebox once. Havn't opened a glovebox since. That's my new policy.
 
Friend usto work at a dealer detail shop and they would do employees cars if they were not busy. When working on the receptionists car he noticed foot prints on the back windshield of her car....said she never lived that one down. :lmfao
 
And people wonder why we like to keep our cars clean and free of clutter ect!

All of these are very good reasons why everyone should keep a pair of latex gloves handy!

People keep medication out of pill bottles in their cars, every guy knows there is a stash of condoms in a bachelors glove box (weather they use them or not is a different story)
 
5 years ago I found a gun in the ice bucket of a LIMO I was detailing.Found wallets TAMPONS IUD GOLD COINS and a BRA but that is normal

Maybe that's what happened to Jimmy Hoffa?!?!?
Possibly, because he is not buried in Giants Stadium.

This a funny thread. I need to detail more cars so I can contribute to this thread.
