    Plomb tool picture thread - show your stuff!

    Just picked up this Plomb 4749 1/4" ratchet today at the flea market for a $1. All it needed was a little WD-40 and it works like it just came from the factory. Apologies for the horrible photo. My phone has a horrible camera on it. Sent from my Alcatel_5044R using Tapatalk

    I thought it was a turtle also. All my pops said after I got it was he had seen it before in the 70s. I'll have to give it a look over for date codes or manufactures codes later. Even though it's Mopar it still looks cool to me. Sent from my Alcatel_5044R using Tapatalk

    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    Thanks.I was just about to post that I found a Sears catalog online from '72 and it looks identical. Makes sense we paid $20 for the box full of tools and got a smaller craftsman with the crown top logo for free with it. The old man had also spray painted it black. Thank you all for you help. I...

    It's definitely seen better days. The only marks that survived any of the use and abuse it has over the years is two holes on the right side of the bottom drawer. Thinking this might be where the badge used to be. Sent from my Alcatel_5044R using Tapatalk

    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    So my Dad and I picked this up today at a yard sale a couple blocks down the street from my house. Someone hit it with spray paint but I like the look of it. No markings on it other than a Made in USA 8-72. It's definitely older than me... I hope. Any help on identifying the maker would be...

    Williams 4-5a

    I for some reason can not figure what this is used for. The female end measures 1/2" the male end measures 5/8". I have double checked this numerous times and cannot for the life of me understand why a Williams USA adapter has a 5/8" male end. Any help would be appreciated. Apologies for the...
