Look what I found...

When I was under the truck today I noticed some foam units up inside the front of the drivers side box. I pulled them down and they had nice openings in the middle, looks like they were used to haul stuff? No other reason for them to be up there and in that specific shape?

Did I mention that this truck was originally from Texas....

I'll have to agree. My cousin bought a car and found several little baggies inside his oversized air filter housing that had a normal sized filter in it

if I buy a used vehicle I always take it to the local sheriffs office and have their drug dog go over it, I don't want to be somewhere a year later, get stopped and have trouble over something I had nothing to do with

How were they secured in there? Might have been something from the original shipping of the truck that has survived almost 20 years.

With some of the drugs out there these days it can only take a handful to be worth $$$$ 4 digit numbers.



I could use the NV4500, wouldn't mind the 215 engine either
