I know it's an old thread but I'm pretty stoked on my new to me DP... Serial # indicates it's from The Bellefountaine Years from 1973 (Thanks for posting that link!
Kind of an odd article...

And the garage is more than a place
to park a car. More than the best room
in the house. It's not really a place at all,
any more than Alice's Rabbit-Hole is.
It's a part ofour interior landscape
I was an F-15 DCC in the USAF and we did exactly this so that we would have an account for tools at the beginning and end of every shift. If there was an empty foam slot in your box, a tool was missing some where on / in / around the aircraft and no one left until it was found. No FOD zone!
Thanks for the all the info. Much appreciated!
Yeah, saw that one on eBay and really don't think 40's is correct but who knows... Also, that price, really?
Anyway...Thanks again!
Found this at the thrift store and wanted to see about doing a restoration on it. It still works great but looks bad. Just want to give it a "looks" restoration I guess but want to check out the insides and make sure it will work for many more years to come.
Any advise will be greatly...
So dig the garages and their uses -
I'm completely rearranging everything. Moved the shelving unit from the back wall (on the left) to the side wall. Now I'm trying to purge some of the **** as I put it back together.
Seems the 8200 is most prominent. I used mine just today to help wire in some lights for the bed of Tacoma. My dad gave me mine about 10 years ago but he wasn't sure how long he had owned it before then.
