Flea market Bonney 11pc angle wrench set

[Mr111]

I picked up this 11 pc (ok 9 and a Napa wrench) metric angled open end Bonney wrench set I'm pretty excited about with two wrenches missing, 11mm and 13mm so MEA11 and MEA13 at the flea market this morning. It was from one of these pawn shop guys that has phones, electronics, power tools, guitars, etc. He had this sitting in a box with a bunch of Chinese tools. I couldn't believe it when said he wanted $10 for it. I probably could have even talked him down from there but I was too busy scrambling to get money out of my pocket. The tools are completely rust free and in great shape outside of a little dirt. Anybody on here have any extras to help me complete my set? I realize I'll be spending more for each missing wrench than I spent for the whole set if they can even be found.

That's a nice set and a great price too! Can't help you with the missing wrenches.

Check Harry J Epstein for the missing wrenches. I know they have NOS Bonney angle wrenches not sure if they are metric.

nice wrenches!

$10? I think you may create negative pressure.

$10? Wow!!!

The Bonneyman says you got an awesome deal. The SAE angles are relatively easy to find - the metrics are darn near impossible. I'm still hunting for the 9mm.
You may be able to find the Bonney-made MATCO versions. They are virtually indistinguishable.

Good luck on your search.

Checked my stash and discovered I have a 17mm (MEA17) in mint condition. Its available for trade if anyone wants it.

Well it seems like the Matco metric angle wrenches aren't exactly growing on trees either. Maybe I'll just buy anything to fill out the set while I hunt down the originals.

Patience, young Jedi.

It took me 10 years of searching to find the last 2 Bonney DBE's I was needing.
These old tools pop up when you least expect them. Just gotta keep your eyes peeled.

I guess I should be thankful! I bought a whole bunch of stuff a couple of years ago. Included was a complete set of metric Bonney angle wrenches in almost new condition! One wrench had a couple of scratches. (quick duck)

I have the full set of Matco metric angle wrenches..never knew they were made by Bonney, but the sure are!
