    Gramp's old Toolbox

    I am with the others - it will only be as it was when it was his once. That’s entirely the value, otherwise it’s just an old toolbox. Of course if there is anything needing done to it to keep it this way so be it...And I also suggest to keep the jump cord with it in some way even if you do...

Never thought about the vintage seal compatibility with the modern additives.
