Lets make an all vintage Snap-on tool picture thread!

Early extension with grip Sg12, and a 1/2 ratchet no model number or patent date.

Trying to identify an old red tool chest that I’ve recently picked up in the UK. Given to me as snap on, but shows no markings, other than made in Canada; no other markings or labels whatsoever. Age was advised at approximately 30-40 years. Can anybody assist please; hopefully I’m in the right thread..

As per my original message, there are no other markings on the box. Is anybody able to help identify?
More photographs added & the sizes are 26.5L 12.5D 15&1/4H.

Final few photos - Hopefully someone can tell me if this is snap on or another box.

Many thanks

SnapOn Taco Cart for sale in Pottersville MI. No association with the seller, but a very attractive price for someone that lives a lot closer than I do.

A while back (last year) I picked this old box, seeing as I thought it had promise.




Turns out I wasn't too far off on that.




Its not perfect by any means, as it was pretty roached. But I might try fogging it was some forest green satin to knock down the sheen a bit.

Nice transformation. I think the Gray is good. Maybe hit it with some steel wool to reduce the gloss.

Can anyone identify the purpose of the Blue Point s9450? 1937 date code.

post a pic.

Can anyone identify the purpose of the Blue Point s9450? 1937 date code.

It is common in that era but not always the case that,

S90xx = Ford
S93xx, S94xx = Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth and DeSoto
S95xx = Chevy
S98xx = Buick

 

[snapmom]

s75xx Studebaker
M42xx Mack
B12xx Cat
M43xx International
S97xx Cadillac and LaSalle
S91xx Hudson and Essex

Have not seen a older S92xx or S96 or BP S99

S94xx would probably be Chrysler

 

[Snaparxon]

Thanks!

I don’t know how to do the pictures, but essentially it is a 1 1/2” opening at right angle to the short wrench handle, probably water pump.

Could it be a S9460, 1-7/16" opening?

Snap-on water pump wrenches were box openings set at a 22-1/2* angle to the shank and the model numbers were in 32/nds.

(I know you've been saying this for years, and other have pointed you to the tutorials, but I've posted more detailed step-by-step instructions for posting photos in the Sticky if you want to give it another go.)

That's good thinking.

 

[Private Lugnutz]

S9450, opening set at 90 degrees to shank, matches my inch and a half 1956 Snap-On wrench. 1937 date code. Thin wrench.

Is the 1956 wrench also marked S9450? Because they still made a caster-camber wrench (as macaxis first alluded to...) in '56 (S9460A at that time), and it was economy made with a very thin head and a very think hardened steel shank. The handle had a slight bow in it to further facilitate clearance/access. I'm starting to think the S9450 was maybe special made for the same or similar purpose on a different car but not listed in catalogs.

EDIT: If you PM me, I will give you my phone number. If you text me the photos, I will post them.

I am posting another tool Ricky Joe has and can't identify.

 

[3baygarage]

Had to go looking for that one. Spotted it in the 46 cat.

Door handle ferrule tool.

Cool. New one to me.

 

[snapmom]

Here is one, lots of hints.

 

[toolaholic]

Snap on saltus 9/16 x 1/2 circa 60s?

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Looks like a 65 date code

 

[toolaholic]

Looks like a 65 date code

It’s in great shape for being older then me. I’m a 67 date code

 

[3baygarage]

That’s an odd one. Is it unlisted? Or, in a catalog that isn’t on collecting SO?

 

[snapmom]

Not in any cats, No one has ID it. Probably a ford tool, but most of the Sxxxx tools from this era were BP.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

There is an s9075 shock wrench in 35 catalog.

 

[3baygarage]

Strange.

 

[snapmom]

There are lots of Blue Point Sxxxx wrenches that are not in the cats.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Picked up a nice number 1 handle

 

[Lesserstore]

Picked these up at a local auction the other day. I have a F-710D ratchet, a Par-X UR-70 ratchet, FX-8 and FX -2 extensions. The last two I got are more interesting they are a PU-20 flexocket with a 1944 "E" code it is also marked "FORD" and "3R-9S" and I also got a 5/8 drive 1924-6 (according to alloy artifacts), No. 300 15/16 socket. I've got 2 questions is 5/8 drive rare and/or valuable, and what could the Ford mean on the flexocket, used in the Ford plant or used for Ford cars and trucks?

 

[snapmom]

5/8 dr was made at least until the 60s. Some 5/8 dr tools from the 20s are quite rare and worth a few dollars, such as the 5/8 dr. speeder.
The Ford tool is probably factory.

N4200 rat. 46 code, 16 inches long. no clue who it was made for.

Just throwing this out there as a public service in the event anyone is interested. Not sure how easily the correct drawer pulls could be found.....

Still a worthy project stack? I have no affiliation to the seller.

Right! Looks like he has 7 handles in the top of the box. I have a badge for it I believe. Is it this one?

No pic of the left side. Not sure if the top box side handle is off. Looks like the badge is still on, just painted white. Hmmm. Should be interesting.

 

[3baygarage]

Snapmom, maybe you saw this. It’s very similar but no additional part number, and a nice chrome. Built off of an F-70N Ferret with oil hole. Head looks rebuilt. 16-1/4” long, 1948 date stamp.
