Re: What's the strangest thing...
I bought a 70's Duster from a junk yard that was full of trash in the passenger compartment and the trunk. The car smelled horrible, a fact the yard owner had commented on when I first ask him about the car. We moved about 8 trash bags of trash, rotted food and clothing from the interior. I remember taking out the back seat to crawl into the trunk since I did not get a trunk key with the car. Once the trunk was opened we had about three more bags full. We figured out that the owner was a local Taco Bell manager after finding several picture ID badges.
With all of this removed the car still smelled bad. That was when my helper decided to look under the front seat. He decided he was done helping when he spied the waistband of two pairs of underwear hidden under the edge of the seat. I laughed and grabbed a pair of pliers to grab one pair and pull them out. They were packed full of poop. Not just a little, more like a couple of pounds worth. We decided the best action was to pull the seat and roll whatever was left up into the carpet and toss the whole thing. There ended up being four pairs of POOP filled underwear under the seat. (Needless to say we did not yell, "OH POOP!" as you can imagine)
We figured out what the smell was. This was where I began reflecting on the crawl into the trunk.
The yard owner said he knew the PO and confirmed that he did in fact work at the local Taco Bell.
I really cannot imagine finding anything any stranger. This includes the wreck I bought once with a hair ball attached to the windshield dangling a what looked like a mass of dried blood.
