It seems like quite often I will purchase a vehicle and while I'm taking it apart to clean it, I find a part inside. I'll share some of my best finds:

I once bought a Cobra Morray from a flea market. Inside the hull of the boat was both windshields and 2 totally intact vertical vanes for the Killer Whale!

This summer I bought a Killer Whale to restore and inside the engine hatch was storm shadow's sword.

Last year I bought a defiant shuttle and booster from a comic book store here in town. Inside the shuttle was several parts, but the best part was the control arm to Payload's backpack.

My mom found the ID card and flashlight (with the thief's initials on it) of the scumbag who stole her car in its back seat. This was after the police had gone through it and claimed they didn't find anything. When the cops told her they didn't know who stole her car, or where to find him, she smarted off to them and told them to send her a check for doing their job for them.
Hey, it was a vehicle, so the story counts.

Thrift store Hammerhead had a few accessories rattling around the inside, you know where the hull gunner sit there's hole for their feet and it's just empty void inside. Can't remember what they were, so long ago.

07GT500 COBRA's Ebay Auctions
Around 1999, I bought a vintage Death Star playset for $45 from a collector shop after trading a couple Randy Moss starting lineup rookie figures (which were hot at the time). It was advertised for $100 and complete minus the rope swing. I found it later that day in the trash compactor!

shepherdman's Ebay Auctions
This one is weird. So I bought the Action Force version of the APC on Ebay from the UK. When it arrived (and it's awesome) it had a little red bard, which looked like it snapped off. I couldn't find where to put it on the APC so I left it inside figuring I might figure it out someday. Year and a half later I buy the Action Force jeap and it arrives missing a front bar. I put the one from the APC on and it is a perfect fit. I super glued it and it looks great. I don't know if I bought both from the same seller or all of those jeeps front bars broke the exact same way. Either way a great find.

I bought a loose Night Rhino off eBay years ago, and when it arrived it had Night Force Dusty inside. Nice surprise there.

jcast's Ebay Auctions
At the 2004 Joecon, I bought a Raider vehicle from a dealer. About a year later, I was dusting it and removed the scout vehicle/front treads to ensure that everything was clean. I then opened the scout vehicle cockpit...and found a V1 Law figure inside.The dealer never mentioned it, so it looks like I got a little bonus.
