No pot stashed but pot smell for years in our 74 Westfalia; all manner of men's clothes were left behind, including underwear, and all receipts/parking tickets for a cross-country trip following the Dead, including a Grateful Dead sticker on a side window. We found a lot of change. Found a new jar of jam. We bought this bus at the junkyard with a dead engine; we were told it was abandoned by Deadheads when their trip was done and the engine quit in the east bay area of San Francisco Bay. It actually took my mother several days of cleaning to get all the clothing and personal items out of the bus.
