Well I figured I would start a new thread for this!!!
I guessed that I had 40 snap on ratchets well I have 31 + 1 on the way, so I have 32. This is normal right:headscrat:pimpflash:lol_hitti
If you figure the amount I have sold here lately then I would have a ton more!!! Enjoy:bounce: Merkava beware I did not polish these first:lol_hitti

Your PAR-X is interesting; I have a 1/4" I picked up the other day at the flea and I also got a PAR-X "speeder" 3/8" wrench and it has the same handle shape as yours! My 1/4' is just round on the handle with a criss cross pattern; almost looks like just stopped the shaping process on the handle (oh, well... lets just stop here and put some cross hatches there)! Yours are also round, while mine is square coming down from the head and then go round where your hand makes contact with the ratchet. I wonder if they made the 1/4" different from the other sizes or changed to round later?

I'm fascinated by the whole PAR-X thing; problem is, I cannot find ANY info about them and I wonder if they had their own catalog or would they be in the 70's era Snapon catalogs?
You have a AMAZING collection! The thing that surprises me, is how most if not all of your ratchets are in mint condition; even the non-sealed models are in incredibly good condition!

So, how did your procure most of your ratchets? The truck, ebay, flea markets, garage sales or pawn shops? I find Snap-On occasionally but they are relatively scarce around here! I generally buy every one I find!
With all those different types in your collection; I think you need to get one of these!

I have bought from all of those sources with the exception of garage sales. Gas prices are to high to cruise those.

Oh my god. How can you be so rich? I have only three Snap on ratchets and sometimes feel guilty for the dollar.

Are you going to sell some of them to us? Come on, you do not need 32 ratchets to get job done. :beer:

If you want I can lay out all of my snap on ratchets and take a pic. I maybe have 10 new ones, but the vintage ones, I bet there are maybe 40 of them. I still dont have then all yet!

I changed the wallpaper of my computer with the picture.

I can not afford so many ratchets, so I decided to watch them instead. :bounce:

I buy here and there, if I had bought all of them at once well I probably would not be married:spit:

At least the concerned citizens of the world can be comforted to know that sperm is highly unlikely to end up anyplace that could pass along Merkava's genetic attributes to future generations.:)
