Default HELLOO....HELLo....HELooooooo, down there [huge bottomless pit]

So here I am cleaning my 1988 and thinking, man I wish I could find a place on this thing for some on board tools and maybe even a set of booster cables.

Oh well, I guess I will clean out the passangers side storage container in the rear. Wait this plastic is loose, maybe I should take it out to see if it is leaking or squeaking or something like that. Hold on, there is a BIG hole under there. This cannot be good, time to get the trouble light. Holly crap it is carpeted and dry, with enough room for a custom tool kit as well as booster cables.

Now why have you guys been holding out on me. I was so happy to find this out after like 5 years of owning the car. I felt like I won the lottery.

I just thought I would share incase anyone elts out there did not know of this secret place to put "things".
:eek: :cheers:

Anyone tell him about the parking brake, and how it pushes down freely after you pull it up and the brake is on? no? oops, I guess he knows now. I didn't know about that for about 6 months of my father having the car.

Don't know about '94, but in '95, that is where the jack goes, in a molded styrofoam holder.

Maybe you should look in your owners manual sometime. All sorts of things in there.
