Little Snap-on Box I found

[Tarpley]

I am currently in the process of rehabbing a rental property a found this little box. It is 10.5" x 7.5" x 1 3/4". It has allot of surface rust but nothing major that I can see. The last picture is the inside of the lid and I am trying to show the indented Snap-on name.

Should clean up nicely, nice little box.

That box looks very similar to a bearing driver set box that I have too bad there are no tools to go along with it.

And after 6 dollars in paint, ready for some new green hard handle ratchets.....

I like the color is it rattle can? If so what brand and color?

 

[Tarpley]

OK, please don't laugh at me because it is Engine Enamel. This is the paint I found at Autozone

At least it will hold up to 500 degree fire

Did you sandbast to prep it?

 

[Tarpley]

No, I sprayed it with a paint stripper product called "Peeler" to remove all of the paint. The paint was so old that it came off pretty easy. I then sanded it to knock the rust off. It was a fast non professional job.

Great choice on the color.

Great find, great resto, and great color! Looks very close to Snap-On's extreme green.


What else can I say? Good job! I want one now

 

[Tim Cowan]

Looks very nice. Looks about the size of a box for a compression tester set.

Turned out great, looks like the box for the large set impact driver: KRA142

That green looks good on there - nice work!

My question is - who the hell would paint their engine that color?

Sprayed a little clear on the box this morning and stole a piece of felt from my wife's craft supplies. Total cost in the refurb. so far is about 8 bucks.
