The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Things you found in your Stovebolt when you bought it ?

Found all kinds of stuff in my C20:

Glovebox:

old pencil that read "Bob's Auto Repair",
full can of ether(i wonder what that was for?),
key to the welding machine ignition,
striker for a cutting torch,
pack of flints for the striker,
welding goggles,
notepad paper,
glass fuses and bulbs

there was a gunrack on the back window(left it there, it gets used a lot)

in the bed:

big, old homemade steel toolbox sitting on the pass. side wheel tub and bolted to the bed rails with about 100 ft of oxygen/acetylene hoses inside, two full shield welding helmets, chipping hammers, files, pipe wrenches, etc.

old oxygen bottle, maybe half full?
old propane bottle, dang near full.

Big old Lincoln SAE300 dc shield-arc welding machine with a straight 6 cyl. flathead Hercules gas engine, runs and welds, just needs the manifold put back on.

Found one of the original rims leaning against the wall inside of Grandpaw's shed with an old Goodyear Super Hi-Miler 7.5-16 bias ply sawtooth tread tire mounted on it. Cleand it up and put a new coat of white paint on it and scrubbed the tire and it looks almost new, except the tread is kinda bald.
