Is this a Plomb Toolmobile?

Is this a Plomb Toolmobile? I'm not able to go to Fremont, California to pick it up but maybe somebody can.

Another shot...I don't see the side handle but I don't know much about them.

 

[DuroChrome]

It has extra parts...

 

[twertsy]

Yes, get that!

 

[thehorse13]

If I lived in Freemont, CA I would grab that tool cart. It will need a full restore but when complete, it will be a rolling piece of art.

Yes, it is... I want it and I'm in California...But then sometimes "life" has other ideas, y'know?

Personally, I love it the way it sits!

Can a GJ member pick this up if for some reason I win this?

Lol, I have the same question!

 

[DuroChrome]

Me too! I'd love to have one to store my Plomb tools...someday when I'm not at work for two months.

Me too, twertsy!

Wish I could help out, but that's too far away. If I did go get it, it wouldn't be for someone else.

hmmm - about 40 miles away from me. My Plomb collection would just about fill that up. I guess I'll have to make some space in the garage...

No, no - You run and get it, THEN you make room for it.
One must have their priorities in order.

dammit! i forget his name/handle. hes a member here and has one of those.
i think its model A ford or something like that.

those extra parts may be the optional add on rack for holding valves & pistons.
to rebuild an engine

I know its not me, but I think you're right. He has one that can hold the pistons on an accessory rack up top.

I'm a hour away haha

 

[Smokeshow69]

Yes, that is a plvmb tool mobile and if I was you I would simply clean it and then wax it real good. It is in too good of shape to restore but that is just my 2 pennies. Hope someone can grab it for you! Whoever grabs it, please let us know!

I sent a PM to montanafordman. I believe this is who you mean.

 

[softailgarage]

It is a plomb. It was made by an LA based company named Pressteel. I have a Pressteel cab, except its green with the white stripe. For $99.00 it's a steal and if I was within 50 miles i'd be in my truck and on the road.

 

[beatcad]

montanafordman. I believe this is who you mean.

yup, that's the guy

 

[jakemac]

How come this isn't in someone's garage yet ?
We're missing out on more pictures.

 

[notlob]

It's on eBay. The auction doesn't end for several days.

 

[Impala64]

Hey Durochrome I can pick up and deliver to the Medford Or area

 

[twertsy]

Full set of nearly new Proto SAE ASD combos (15 piece - Satin) for someone's troubles if I win and you coordinate pick-up/shipping...............

 

[DuroChrome]

Wow! I guess I shouldn't have posted it to the competition!

I might try to bid on if that offer is good...I would LOVE to store my Plomb tools in a Plomb Toolmobile. Either way someone who appreciates it will win that auction.

 

[FJ 432]

I have Snap On, MAC, Herbrand, MBC, Craftsman, Proto, Kennedy, Waterloo boxes.

My Plomb tool mobile is one of my most treasured. Just sayin.

Thanks for the PM FJ 432. I would have replied earlier but I've been away from home all month in training. Yes I have a Plomb Toolmobile and I love it! I'm sure the one on here could be cleaned up and put back into service., It looked like it had the removable tray and locking bar too. If you have a chance to get one I HIGHLY recommend it! I keep a lot of my grandfathers tools and other vintage tools I have acquired in mine and I have a lot of fun using it.

Here are a few photos of mine.

 

[twertsy]

Absolutely awesome.

[stormking]

The seller loved this thread.

 

[DuroChrome]

so who got it? i sure wish i could have scored that Toolmobile. hopefully it went to a good home.

 

[montanafordman]

Count me interested to know who got it too! Hopefully it went to someone on the forum who will give it the home it deserves. We want to see some pictures of that thing cleaned up and put back into service!

 

[930dreamer]

Not me.

 

[johnnybentwrench]

I have NOS clips for the drawers. It went for a fair price. John Los Angels, CA

 

[twertsy]

I'd have paid that if I could have found someone to pick/ship for me.......unfortunately, not me

 

[zeet]

I sat there and watched it go by too...

 

[Outlawmws]

So no one in the thread got it?
