Picked up my first decent toolbox recently. Have started rebuilding an old Chevy pickup, and doing as much as I can myself I found my tool count growing. Needed somewhere decent for them to be kept. Spent a few weeks considering my options, when I found this 40" KRA Snap-On roll cab with top...

Yeah I looked at that on their site. They don't offer all the sizes in 6 point. At least not anymore.

My newest acquisitions. GearWrench adjustable/extendable 18"-29" pry-bar. ... and whilst not brand new, they're barely used, and new to me: Snap-On SAE ratcheting wrench set. Grabbed 'em for a song off eBay. :beer:

6 months without some action on the SO trucks behalf is pretty piss poor. I could understand not dropping everything and hitting you up in an instant. They guy does have a route, and that's usually planned so they're not unnecessarily criss-crossing the countryside wasting a tank of fuel every...

I know that 'Cuda! Always loved that paint job. I'm "rooks" over on c-c.com (which is where I know your car from). Haven't been there in a while though. Had a silver '70 Challenger for the last few years, but I sold it just before Christmas last year. Regarding the garage ... the drywall you...

There's a few variables, but 6 capable people with decent wheel-barrow's should kill it. As a concretor that has wheeled more concrete over stupid terrain than he cares to remember, there are a few things to consider: - 10'x10' is nothing. With 6 'barrows, you'll knock it over in no time. -...

Great post. Interesting stuff. To the OP, would you care to run through the procedure and detail (within reason) how each stage was applied? Not asking you to put yourself out of business, but some info for curious minds would be awesome.

I grabbed these two Craftsman impact sets form Summit recently - one SAE and one Metric. Each set contains 24 1/2" sockets (12 standard + 12 deep) - all 6-point; 2 extensions; and a universal joint. $159 per set. ($318 for both SAE & Metric). All US Made. Great price and no complaints on...

Checked the oil? No oil will lead to seized pistons. I know that first hand. once turned on, it'll try for a moment, then trip the breaker.

Good post. Puts things into perspective too. Say your right on the 32% markup, let's look at the numbers. The cheapest KRL Roll Cab on the Snap-On website - which is your base run-of-the-mill 7 drawer roll-cab - and that's $3,655 retail. Certain KRL cabs exceed $11,000, and this is just single...

G'day. Been a lurker for a while here and registered a while back, as I found the forum members garage builds kept me coming back for more. :rocker: Green with envy. Have a few cars, and just started getting serious building up the tool collection - unfortunately no garage to put them in. One...
