ferret set from the tool box I bought. It was full of 46, 47 48 date code!!

No matter what euro Ratchet I buy, I always grab the Snappy
I never really had any Snap on before besides a distributor wrench and two ratchets I bought new on the truck. I bought all these in the tool Box pictured from the original owners daughter

Ok, I'm new to this and, on a whim, I bought some old snap on tools that I saw at a garage sale. I have one 3/8" ratchet, about 10 various sockets. but the thing that caught my eye, is a 16 pc snap on socket set. 3/8" inch. all with they exception of one is in the original brown "wax-paper like" wrapping. If I take the time to post pictures could you guys give me some info and maybe an estimated value of them?

 

[wrenchr]

Post them up..........

 

[jaykhjr]

This is three of the pics. more in next post

 

[jaykhjr]

another three...

 

[jaykhjr]

Last one, Let me know if you need any info on them. Ill tell you what i can as far as numbers and markings go. Thanks to everyone who helps!

 

[snapmom]

The SW sockets and the rat are prob. 40s. The smaller sockets, what model number are they, they look much older, can you get a close up pic of them.
These sockets would have a date code, like a single letter or number. You can look them up on a date code sheet.

 

[jaykhjr]

Thank you, for the help
here is a rundown of each tool

Ratchet: 1/2" No. 71-N Kenosha Wisconsin

16 pc. set (info taken from the 9/16" socket that is out of wrapping) SW-180 circa 1941

Socket that is a screw driver - F-25-C circa 1949

5/8" SW-20? possible 200, cant make out what the last digit is. No date marking at all.

19/32" SW-190 circa 1945

9/16" sw-180 circa 1945

25/32" SW-250 circa 1945

1 & 1/16" SW-340 1/2 circa 1944

1" SW-320 1/2 circa 1944

7/16" no sw marking. circa 1929

5/16" with the markins TM 10 E 0... circa 1930 (if 0) or 1944( if E)

3/8" F-121 Circa 1950

11/32" TM 11 E 0... same situation. not sure if '30 or '44

9/32" TM9 E 0..." "

3/16" TM 3 E 0 " "

Lastly 7/32" TM 7 E 0 " "


Any ideas on value? I dont collect snap on, and Im a college student so I could use the money from selling them... I bought them for 1.25 total...

 

[BigAl62]

Here's mine. The sockets are 1/2" 12 point and date coded from 1950 to 1965 (please excuse the Craftsman ratchet and tool tray, that's what they came in), the extensions are dated from 1957 to 1959 and the 6 point impacts are all from 1950 and the 3/8" drive flex are mid 1950s date coded.

 

[BigAl62]

While I'm at it can anyone tell me about the 1/2"F to 3/4"M adapter - it has both a retaining ball AND a retaining pin, is this normal from the 50s?

 

[snapmom]

Jay: the TM sockets would be like 44. Its hard to put a price on the wrapped sockets, you sould list them on ebay, as Snap on WW11 new old stock sockets. There are lots of WW11 collectors who would like to have them, the bad thing is that these are common tools, and they made tons of them during the war, but to find them in the paper is rare.

 

[jaykhjr]

Ok thanks, So if I were to put a price tag on the whole lot what do you think is a fair price?

Don't know if this counts as "vintage" but it's still working and deserves some credit.

 

[JeremyManning]

Time for a little revival of this thread here are a few tools I purchased from Jusridin. First up is a group shot.

 

[JeremyManning]

Next up are close ups of the vacuum grip duckbill pliers and offset screwdrivers the 050 is for some big lad flat head screws

 

[snapmom]

 

[JeremyManning]

Last but not least is the blue point halfmoon wrench and hammerhead screwdriver (I had been looking for one of these for a while)

 

[JeremyManning]

A pair of vacuum grip side cutters

 

[snapmom]

Some interesting screwdrivers, Jeremy

 

[ianguilly]

I have an old Im-5 impact I still use sometimes at work.

 

[3baygarage]

This is a great old thread. I can't believe some of the awesome tool collections you all have. I thought I'd ad this 1/2" extension even though there's a bunch on here. It's over 9-1/2" long. More to come when I have time to dig things out.

 

[3baygarage]

Does anybody have any info on this piece? I was told it was from around 1940. The part # is either A-100 with a 3 for 1943, or else it is A-1003, though the 3 looks larger than the other numbers.
Also, it is stamped twice. The same markings appear at both ends. I'm still undecided on whether somebody made this from 2 separate tools. It doesn't appear to have been welded together but the bend is questionable in my opinion. I can't find info on the part number. All I really know is it is a 1/2" drive L handle with a lock button and only one end works.
Sorry for the not so great pictures but any help is much appreciated.

EDIT: THIS TOOL WAS POSSIBLY MADE FROM TWO 10" A-1003 MASTER TEE HANDLE SHANKS as found on Collecting Snap-On's website, 1937 Industrial Catalog pg. 21.

Was digging through my tools today and took these out to add:

 

[3baygarage]

The date stamps on the two extensions:

I'm thinking 1931 and 1928 by the chart.

 

[snapmom]

A nice set, covers 1920s thru at least the 1940s. On the pic that shows all the tools, what is the tool on the far right?

Thanks Snapmom. That pic got cut off but it's a muffler/tailpipe separator. I believe I also have another I've used that's slightly different shaped without that hammering face on the side.

For anyone curious I wanted to mention the plier with the odd jaws, I believe it was for old chevy drum brake springs. The two tools at the bottom if not recognizable by everybody, are a spark plug gapper and Blue Point piston ring groove cleaner.

 

[That Man's Mustache]

Picked up this Midget set from an online auction. All the dates are '47 except for the handle and it's '57. Missing a few sockets, gives me something to look for!

It looks almost brand new! Except for the flex and flat blade, and those are marked non-replaceable.

 

[McFarmer]

Not much, but it's all I have :

The set of internal squares is complete.

 

[thetool]

Some old stuff

 

[3baygarage]

Great tools guys.

Here's a comparison of the two muffler/tailpipe separators. GA84 & GA84A

The newer round stock GA84A looks like a 1980 date code. A diamond is actually stamped on it on each line.. Looks to have been painted and unfortunately the name was ground off.

I don't see a date on the older one but it has a patent #2860408.

 

[ganymede]

Some ratchets I like.
Front to back..
An MV71. Don't know when it was made just that by the early 70's they had changed the looks of them a bit.
M70N with a 1939 date code.
F71C. The gear in this was toast (3 missing teeth) and I wasn't sure if I could get a new one. A kind board member ( I don't want to mention their name in case they get inundated with parts requests) sent me an original gear and a new spring too. Included a vintage instruction sheet too. Now it's ready for more service . Super duper thanks.

 

[ShadowRuleZ]

Couple of things I've got hanging around. 1930 date code, marked Chicago on the box. 5/8" drive.

This one has a wood handled driver. I forget the date off the top of my head.

I've also got a snap-on made Craftsman c-series set, but no good pictures.

 

[snapmom]

The blond wood handle driver, is very hard to find. nice sets.
