Do you have pics of the repair shop from when you found it? That sounds like more fun than going through king Tuts tomb.

The value is going to depend a lot on what model, what age and what condition. Detailed pictures are going to be the only way to give you any kind of true estimate on value.

That and we just like to see cool old tools.

The box is most likely a late 30's-early 40's box, when a grey-green color was used. Often this paint has turned to a brownish green over time, but well preserved examples are still a nice grey-green color. The oldest snap on boxes were a different shade of green (more green, less grey in tone), but a rolling combo like this will be 30's and later era. The oldest combo's would have been black, then changing to grey-green mid 30's. When pics come along, we can get a better idea of model number, value, etc.
