took console out to better understand cable-shift operation, found another interesting surprise. as there is a slit between the ashtray and console, the ashtray being used for coins, they tend to fall through. found 16 years of loose change!

That's too funny, I found the same thing! Car rattled all the way home when I got it. Pulled the console and found $23.75 in quarters and about 100 toothpicks! Add it to the parts fund.
