Yeah, that box was made before Snap-on started doing colors.

repaint could be hiding issues 400 fair price as long as no obvious issues found

i understand,listening to the wife,i'm trying to do the same.
but as it was said many times on this board "It's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission"

I'm not too far from the Walnut Creek area. Too bad I don't have the space for such a box right now.

The only thing I don't like about that box is the door covering the little drawers on the top chest; it's black and from a distance, it looks like a vacant hole. I would've designed the box with the little drawers up flush with the big drawers and I would've had them fully exposed without the damn door.

That box is obviously a repaint, isn't it?

I have the same setup, with the 3 drawer middle. It's a great setup for home use, probably not big enough for what you pros like. Only 18" deep.

Merk, here's a weird thing about that little door on the top box. I have two of those boxes. On the older one, the little door will swing all the way out and touch the side of the box. So if you want to open it and forget about the door, you can do that. On the KR537 that's one year newer, you can only open that door about 2/3 of the way, which is annoying.

Always struck me as strange why they would've changed the way they designed that door to a worse design.

I got that setup before colors. Never seen it in blue either, I think the top may be a repaint. I'm keeping mine forever.

Love that box on the left, I'd give my knidneys for that

Well if you gave both of them, that box wouldn't do you much good b/c you'd be dead!

That is a beautiful box though!

 

[Canadian Charlie]

Ok so I'd give one for that box

That''s funny merk, the little door is the reason I like that old box (even though I could never be happy working with a top bottom combo). My boss from a while ago bought a set with the "garage door" bottom and that style top. I got to clean it all up and lube everything I totally would rock one out for my "at home" box. the only thing I don't like are the built in drawer dividers.
