When you start digging around in a car just recently acquired you expect to find some loose change, maybe old registration papers, Del Taco receipts, etc. Maybe even a 10 mm socket; they have to go somewhere.
Pulled the backpad out of a 73 six conversion to swap out the recalcitrant seat belt retractors and I found this:  Still hanging from the bolt. But no change. |

I bet somebody snuck that wrench under the back pad to hold the bolt while tightening the nut on the engine side of the firewall, and then forget it was there.
