Help with identifying tools?? HELP!

[ekegelmann]

I need to know what these are can anyone help??

Looks like an old steering wheel puller, but not sure

 

[jwitt]

Clutch alignment tools and hub puller

 

[snapmom]

Its a Blue Point wheel puller.

Its used to pull brake drums off of older cars and trucks. A very handy device if you need to do brake work. Zeke

 

[ekegelmann]

Is there a market or value in these?

 

[zeke01]

The drum puller is desirable and should bring in the neighborhood of $80.00-$100.00 at an antique car forum such as aaca.org. Zeke

 

[ekegelmann]

Thanks for the info! I'll be posting some more things later, did you see the old lapping tool I posted by blue point? Also is that site you listed good for selling old car parts as well??

 

[zeke01]

Go to the forums section of aaca.org. Inside that you will find the buy/sell section. You can browse without registering. Register and post if you think it reaches the target audience. Good luck. Zeke

That hub puller is for vehicles that have the rear drum attached with a locking taper and a nut holding the whole drum and hub assembly on. Some older jeeps and other cars from the early 50's had that type of rear drum attachment. The end of the hub is made to be struck with a hammer to help force the locking taper to loosen. I used one several times but it's been 40 years at least since I had to use one. Lots of luck finding someone who needs one. The other tools are clutch alignment tools that really work and line everything up right. Much better than the plastic junk you find now. Of course in their day those few tools would fit probably 98% of all cars with clutches.

Here's another tool I need some help with and wonder if it has any value, its an American Beauty Soldering Iron No 3158. Any interest out there in things like this?

Hey OP.......You should put your location in your info.

It wouldn't be Northville, MI, would it?

There's a guy selling one just like yours, from there, on CL for $100.

And he's got your same taste in carpet.....

I wonder where he got his pricing info?

 

[ekegelmann]

Haha, yeah thanks everyone for the help. Im new here and very thankful. I collect old odd tools. Usually hoard. That this is too heavy for my collection room though.

 

[ekegelmann]
