Thought this would be a fun thread to start. Not sure if it has been done before but I couldn't find one when I looked. Kind of got the idea from the recent post about a guy having a shifter problem. N E Wayz, as we all know, having a love for fiero has resulted in many of us purchasing mulitple fieros. Every time I buy another, I find more and more treasurers hidden under the seats, in the console, under the shift plate, etc. I thought it would be fun to hear some of the things we all have found when aquiring another Fiero.

AND GO!!!

Out of my 1 Fiero, I got $5 in quarters, nickles, and dimes and the missing remote for the CD player. Nothing too special.

Oh and a lot of mouse poop!

Although I also found a full package of Bic pens under the seat of my GT when I got it.

When I bought my talon a few years back, I was gutting the interior. I pulled the rear seat and a photo floated out from underneath it. I did a double-take when I saw that it was a picture of my dad presenting an Eagle Scout award to someone. The odd part is that I drove about 2 hours to pick up the car.

As it turns out, the picture was from a previous owner, the guy recieving the eagle scout award. He sold the car to the guy I bought it from.

How's that for a treasure?!

Oh man, I forgot all about the trunk!
It had a spare set of decklid vents, some jumper cables, a drivers side tail light, and some brake parks cleaner.

Imagine this as spotless before, I spent hours detailing the car before we put it in storage...
The brown stains on the seats were not there, and in other pictures, there are urine stains going down the door panels...
Also ill ask my father to email some exterior pics to go along with these.

*edit for info*



Yeah it ended up getting totaled, nice little treasure we found after storage...

I discovered mold throughout the headliner. The last owner should have changed the sunroof seal before he let the car sit for 10 years.

#1 and #4 where pretty clean.
# 2 had some money, gummy bears, beer bottle caps, cig. butts.
# 3 had the original wheel covers under the spare tire and a hair brush under the seat which I have no use for.
# 5 had three dollars in change under the seats, and that was two dollars more that I paid for the car. In the trunk it had a Domino's Pizza delivery guys jacket along with several undelivered pizza's that where way pass their prime.
# 6 had so much mouse stuff in it that I had to gut the interior right down to the steel.
# 7 fish hooks in the trunk, a state issued certificate (14"x24") to be a licensed pharmacist behind pass. seat, and the original registration slip from 1988 in the center compartment.

My dad got his fiero from a father who's 17 yr old didn't like it, he found a melted tube of lipstick in one map pocket (that was so nasty to clean out), and about $25 in change under the ashtrays.

Found a stuffed Felix the Cat under the passenger seat when I was cleaning the car for the Dells Run back in May.

The car got the nickname "Felix" from that.

Also found a wrench and a hammer under the driver seat, and an umbrella and Haynes Fiero repair maunal under the passenger seat. There was also $2.57 in change under the shifter plate.

My ZR-2 had a 14 carat woman's ring under the passenger seat.

In the junkyard in a blue 87 coupe I found $6.55 in change in the console, along with a decklid key. In the trunk I found a bunch of tools, some new suspension parts, and 2 sunroof shades in their vinyl bags. One of the shades had never been used, it still had the peel off tape on the Velcro discs that stick it to the sunroof glass. It also had the original GM instructions in the bag as well. It all cost me $10.

Mine is boring compared to some. Of course ALL the money in the console is a usual. My best came from my Formula I bought back in 05. Let's just say that the guy I bought it from was about 18-19 years old and he had a BEAUTIFUL girlfriend that loved to be photographed. She also enjoyed the company of toys. And the photo "spread" in a field and on the beach was amazing. What made it really nice is that I had to go back down and have him sign some paperwork. I can understand why he was still dating this girl but it was difficult (hard) talking to her directly knowing her that way.

Nope different one but I must admit the one with all the dildos in the trunk (as compared to the ones you sometimes find in the driver's seat) was pretty damn funny.

I used to work for aftermarket auto accessory place. We stuck a dildo on a door lock actuator and put in on a padded plywood stand. Placed it in a woman co-worker's car seat as a joke. Ended up building 25 of the things for her to sell to her friends.

I found the usual change, a complete set of Craftsman Allen wrenches in the original case, and a hypodermic needle with the needle exposed. Sure glad I removed the seat and didn't just reach underneath and feel around.

First Fiero: 86/355 Body Kit had a brand new Grant steering wheel behind the drivers seat which is now installed on my 87 T-top; a set of jumper cables; a dead battery on the Fiero battery tray; the guy who installed the body forgot to take the battery out and it could not be removed without taking apart the car ( I made it "go away" by painting it flat black!); no money

Second Fiero: 87/T-top about $2.35; a lot of mouse turds; one mummified mouse; a few mice nests

Third Fiero 86/SE Parts car; about $3.00 in change; a Fiero Haynes manual; a cassette tape case
