Found a '65 Quarter, a severely corroded CR123 battery, a jack (no handle, grr!), a full spare, and someone stuffed a Frisbee under the driver seat! Score!

Haven't gotten it totally unloaded but there was this neat set of tow hooks. I'd love to know what they're from, would like another pair. Have found lots of the little MRE Tabasco bottles.

Hi guys! Just picked up a neglected M1008. Wow, I found some neat stuff! A crusty old 34 battery, camo net, Hummer HF antenna and mount, military radio external speaker, a seashell (yes, a seashell), TM for an articulated tractor, gaskets, set of 8 glows NIB, the original rear axle in the bed (New one and driveshaft installed), 2 new commercial big random batteries (Now in truck) cig butts, candy wrappers, etc.

And one massive mess of discombobulated wiring I had to fix.

ah don't you just love the little goodies the govn't left for us? My souvenir list from my '85 09 includes:

*jack/tool kit
*rusted out jumper cables dangling from spare tire carrier
* a condom wrapper used (dated 1999!)
*a roll of some kind of wire under the rear seat

several very p***ed off black widows and get this... a garder SNAKE (good thing im niether arachnaphobic nor afraid of snakes lol)

and probably at least a pound or more of iron oxide (Fe2O3) lol

hopefully whoever used that condom had the decency to DO their business outside the vehicle i can only hope since i only found the wrapper.... so far.....rofl
