Nothing so much happened as I was putting in these pieces that was an error, but what I found was amazing! A literal treasure trove of tools!

- In the airbox, I found a nice ratchet handle and a 10mm socket

- In the front air intake I found one of those magnetic extender thingies that you use to pick up screws ( makes me wonder what the mechanic was trying to pick up)

- Underneath the windshield wiper arms I found a screwdriver like socket adaptor

- And wedged in between the fusebox and the firewall a pretty greasy, but still spendable $20 bill.

I actually made 3 bucks on that repair!
A long time ago I worked at my friends used car lot....... you could not imagine the stuff I would find in the trunks of those cars, the list could go on forever but the best things I would find were broken Craftsman tools......... tons of them! I would take them home and every once and awhile I would go to Sears and turn then in for new ones My toolbox is filled with spare ratchets, screwdrivers, lock pliers...... you name it!
