That's like a little glovebox or carkit Stan! Very cute though Smile

My dads old beat is a monster and you can understand why it's lasted so long when you lift it up! It's about the length of a pc keyboard, and about 6-8" wide and about 2" deep. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

I bought the bigger version of your Kamasa set Stan, must be about 36-38 years ago Shocked the box was disposed of many years ago but the tools live on

Only thing that gave up on the draper was the mechanism for the socket part and a replacement couldn't be found so the whole unit was replaced instead Sad knowing my dad he probably has the old duff unit somewhere! FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Before this descends into chaos can we make sure these are tools and not 'tools' that are not suitable for rebuilding vehicles and such Wink FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Can't believe there's been no innuendo in this thread yet.

Ok, I'll start.

Can I put my massive tool in her box?
