Chrysler Master Tech Service Conference tools

[adamsredlines]

So a buddy sent me a message about a week ago, asked if I'd ever heard of these. I say yeah, they are pretty cool. He asks if I'd be interested in them, he knows a guy looking to sell some. I say sure depending on price...then hear nothing back from him. He showed up last night with a box...and some MTSC tools. I look 'em over and ask if he ever came up with a price and he said "can you give these a good home?" I say depending on price, sure. He says "No, can you give these a good home....if so, they're yours".

HECK YEAH, dont have to twist my arm!
I dont really know the story on these, I've seen 'em on eBay and know they are made by Bonney back in the day. Anywho, here they are in all their "gold plated" glory.

I have a flare nut wrench like that. I was wondering what was up with it.

NICE! Collector tools, I guess. I sure as hell wouldn't want to use them.

 

[metaldad]

very nice!

Those old Mopar muscle car freaks and collectors; might just give you a pretty penny for those on ebay!

The ratchets are made by Bonney.

EDIT-

I now see the sockets are clearly marked "Bonney," so I'm sure you already knew this.

I wish they still did the Master Tech tool program. My old mentor at the dealer I work at had some, and actually used them. A basic A/C leak kit and a set of security Torx bits.

I still have my nut wrench set and swivel socket set left around here somewhere.

I've got a small Blue Point multimeter, some Snap On precision screwdrivers, a multitool, 6 cell Maglite, Carhartt jacket and a Snap On mini box from the Gold Tool Program floating around here somewhere. The jacket was 2-3 yrs worth of points. 1 year I got a pistol grip SO pliers. If the selected tool for the year was something cool or useful I would get it otherwise I'd save the points. A couple times I got Snap On gift certificates.

Now we have a 'Certified Professionals' program. Last year I got a couple T-shirts and a sweatshirt. Haven't ordered this years award yet.

my grandfather gave me his, he earned them every year between '80-'92 every year. He always used them. Always said he earned them, so he might as well use them.

Neat!

 

[wornoutoldman]

I would wear those tools out through use!

And the man who started it all-back in the late 40's- Mr Tech! He was seen in all the old 35MM filmstrips.

My father was a service manager at a Chrylser Plymouth dealer in the early 70's. I have a micrometer, spark plug and 3/8 drive socket set.
