Good starting point. I see a penny in there. How do they always find their way in??? Console holes, maybe?

??? Not even going to try to figure out how that got in there. Looks like there was a broadcast sheet in there too stuck to the floor.

Maybe if you know how to contact the original owner, I'd send the guy back that "package" he lost somewhere back in the 80s and tell him where you found it. It may be the reason he potentially has a 35 year old kid now? :)

Sell it on eBay since it is vintage, should sell for big money.😂

You could do that, or, you could just swap it out for one a buddy has lying around and get a lifetime of laughs starting a couple months later....

I heard the assembly line workers would drop in an artifact every now and then. I found an unopened condom under the console in my ‘85, the condom had a 1984 expiration date on it. No way it could have fell under there…

When I replaced the carpet on the 84 HO it was pretty clean except for one little mouse near in the back. Lansing cars were swept out pretty well. I’ve yet to have to lift the original carpets in the 85 and 87. I’m the original owner of the 85 so it’s either Arlington trinkets or stuff I lost in there. Hopefully find a build sheet under there.
