I had to pull the carpet on the driver's side today to run a new trunk release cable and found a crap load of pennies, dimes, quarters, four 10mm deep sockets, one short 10mm socket, one 12mm wrench and few screws. I can't wait to take off the carpet on the passenger side now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

When I first pulled my carpet out all I found was a couple pieces of old popcorn. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Nice find.

i havent pulled the carpet yet but when i pulled out the center section of the tail lights to have the trunk painted, the original mitsubishi factory key fell out from behind. worked out great considering my son broke my only other key in half a few weeks later.

When I use to race in some of the street car based classes we found some crazy stuff under carpets. My dad bought an old car off an employee. We found a metal pipe for weed. "Glad I fired that guy a while ago" was what pops said. Also, we bought a car from a racing buddy that runs a junk yard. He buys cars from police auctions. The car we got had 3 bullet holes in it. We found a clip of home made 9mm hollow points. Someone had taken a knife to each bullet. Anyways, good find under your carpet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 

That's pretty sweet. All I found under my carpet was a Cheeto wrapped in cat hair /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

i found 2 checks that were void from 1994 under my carpet from an attorney. one was for $1900, and the other for $1.85. i threw them away and my mom asked why there were 2 checks in the garbage can

Awesome! Last time I pulled the seats and carpet out of a Mitsubishi, I found a bright red thong. It was funny because I bought the Eclipse from a good friend of mine and both he and his wife were really tall. Bow chikka bow-bow!

Otherwise, just some red mardis gras beads in the center console of my Galant. Also, a french fry, which looked surprisingly new, despite obviously being more than three years old. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif
 

The more you do it the longer it stays shiny.

Could be an interesting story behind this.....

Maybe the PO drove the car to NO to party at Mardis Gras hence the beads. On the way there he stopped at Mcdonalds for a meal and dropped some fries between the seat and console. Upon fishing them out he missed one. Once to NO and while partying he threw beads to a hooker that was wearing a red thong. They hooked up in the back seat of what is now your Galant and the hooker accidentally left her thong behind, or maybe purposely to mark her territory. The thong wasn't spotted by the stuffer until he arrived back home when luckily he noticed it before the SO did so he shoved it between the seatback to hide his guilt. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
