OK - Somebody in Oshawa should fess up

Finally got around to installing a cold air intake. When removing the stock air box I heard something rattling around. Found the usual bug parts, but I don't understand how this got in there. Especially given that the stock intake is totally choked up.

Anyone up North smoke the Camel Crushes?

Haven't you heard the car is built by robots. Stupid droids.

The droids unionized and in their master agreement with GM added the option for a smoke break while GM agreed to let them smoke they did not agree on the break. Hence, the item found in your intake or just an elaborate way to explain that your car has a smoking problem and now you know where it hides the cigarettes!

This gave me an idea for a plate - SMOKIN SS. Probably taken and it might be too long. Be checking soon!

I read a Hemmings Muscle Machines mag a couple of years ago. During the resto of a '68 Z28 they found an empty beer can behind the passenger side kick panel. It may have been there from the factory, or from a previous owner, but it is part of the history of the car. Although it would seem that employees would not be permitted to smoke while on the line.
