A box of pinfire cartridges in the “toolbox” of a ‘46 Willys CJ2A. The built-in box was rusted shut, but was in good shape inside. In an oilcloth within was a box of 12mm pinfire ammo that was in remarkable condition. While it could have been loaded in the early 20th century, it was more likely to have come from the…
There’s a good “lost his marbles” joke here somewhere.. I’m just too lazy to think of it.
You misunderstand the PO’s method: “Aww, baby, we can’t use the rubber because it’s expired...but my dick isn’t...”

In the center console of my previously-reposessed F-350, I found (in dated order):

Bullet. Not casings. The expended round.
A friend of mine who bought a government auction Porsche started having electrical problems under the dash and decided to diagnose it himself. He found a kilo of blow.
Back in 1955, my father bought a 1936 Hudson for $25 from a neighbor down the street. The car had been sitting since the owner died several years earlier and his widow never learned how to drive. When my father started tearing apart the interior to evict the mice who had taken up residence, he found a Bugler tobacco…
I found a Desert Storm vintage MRE in the storage bin of my 85 RX7.
Once had a crack pipe fall out from under my dash, while doing an electrical diagnosis, after owning the car for nearly three years. At that moment I realized how lucky I really was considering I had been making regular business trips back and forth between Windsor, ON and Detroit, MI.
I found some little baggies with rock candy in the map pocket. Kids must’ve loved that stuff.
My first truck had a recipe for taco soup that I still use to this day. Recipe was the best thing in that deal.
I’m going to go with “or something” ;)
Second hand WRX wagon with a digital gram scale under the seat. Previous owner must have been a chef or something.
