Grabbing a CAT version of the box is a lucky find. The not so good news is that finding a metal CAT emblem is going to be one hell of a search. They're extremely hard to come by. I borrowed this image from a post by LNKMK8 who found a really nice example of this box about 8 or so years ago...

You may have a later production version of this box, which had a decal emblem. I don't see the mounting holes for the metal emblem but that could be just the picture quality and/or my eyes.

Welcome. You have a few nice Blackhawk jacks there.

I didn't even show this story to Mrs. Horse. Wooden crates are too closely associated with the ones you throw in a six foot deep hole. Wouldn't wanna give the lass any ideas.

He's an early Ford guy and a childhood best friend so while he is out sniffing for Ford parts, he comes across a lot of vintage tools. He has a list of what to look for and we horse trade so to say. In this case, we had a buyer and seller who had no idea what this vise is all about. Because of...

A friend of mine pulled up with this today. If you know what this is, then you know why it's posted here. :)

Finding a Wilton at a yard sale for 150 is rare. Finding an early fish hook vise is incredibly rare. You did a great job bringing it back to life. Also, yes, you ****.

This is one of the most common vintage Snap On boxes around. I see them in similar condition around here for about $150 USD and typically they sit forever. That said, if you want a box that is built like a tank this is a good choice if you can get the price down another 100 bucks.

I need to find one of these. Well done! :)

What you have is a very high quality mechanical (not hydraulic) press.

If anyone is after a 4 drawer intermediate, this guy has one for sale on FB Marketplace in Sterling, VA. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/903758935631150/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks

Well, that explains the fast "no longer available" status. lol. I was watching this one but I'm really happy it went to the right home.

Ever since one of these porto-power units appeared on the pickers TV show, everyone wants 700+ for them.

That's a great ratchet. One of my favorites to use. Nice work!

Correct Don. In fact, present day, the majority of "Remline" boxes that I see come up for sale are the Montgomery Ward Powr Kraft variety.

A few of these vises have turned up here over the years. I have only seen one put back into usable service.

Congrats, Don. Finding that 9004 release tool was one of the longest searches I've ever had. That's a nice Nuggies set ya have there off to the right. :)

That's a beautiful find. It even has the red recess stripes still in place. Be very careful with your selection of cleaner as those stripes can vanish if the cleaner is too harsh. Well done!

A short bath in some ATF and it should work good as new.

Great job here. This is exactly how I started my Alemite merchandiser adventure. I found a beat to death bench and then later found the side cabinets. I'm still on the hunt for the final piece, which is the center section. You've come to the right place. We have members with extensive...
