Sorry to hear about Mark.

On the coins, I had a 65 Chevelle parts car that had 1965 dated penny, nickel, dime and quarter glued to the floor in a neat straight line, all facing the same way, under the factory sound deadener under the dilapidated original back seat. Surely a line worker was not spending 41 cents per car out of his own pocket just to create a conversation piece for some time in the future, so I never came up with any idea why that happened.

I also had a Fremont built 67 ElCamino that had a Miller beer can in the driver's quarter panel between the wheel and taillight, which I found when I took off the access panel on the bedside. I googled old Miller cans and the can was painted just like the 1966 version when the car was built, and had the same type tab hole on top. Sneaking a quick drink on the line, and hiding the can ???
