Otherwise it defeats the purpose of calling it a glove box. If gloves are not in this box it would be more accurate to describe that volume as a passenger compartment.

    tires were a lot less reliable than they are now, and i mean to the point that you really needed to be ready to change a flat every time you drove your car… they didn’t fail all the time, but they failed at a much higher rate and when they did it was usually catastrophic… modern tires tend to deal with punctures and failure in general a lot better than the inner tube tires used prior to the 80s… and obviously nobody had a cell phone to call for help…

    so you kept work gloves in there for changing a flat tire
