    J.C. Penny tools

    Let's Hear it for the Old Gray/Red Sears Craftsman Tool Chests and Cabinets (60s/70s)

    I love these old G/R boxes, I have been trying to pick a couple up when I can. My shop lights washed out the touch up Hammered Gray, I put the loop handles back on after this picture. I only paint boxes when they are so disgusting that I don't want to keep my tools in them. The 10...
