Finished my Snap-On K23 Tool box refurbishing

[Chief_Industrialist]

So I found this old timer in the trash. Didn’t look like much, but I brought it back to life. I didn’t go crazy getting out dents and fixing gaps. I left the character but got all the old paint off and breathed new life into this little tool box. Enjoy the before and after photos.

What paint/color did you use?

Nice work.

Some years back, I found a similar style box which was really too far gone, but for $5, I couldn't leave it behind.

There was no way to get the dings out of the double-wall front, so I plated it with a piece of stainless.

Any guesses as to when Snap-on changed to the logo on mine and began painting them red?
