My 1st Kennedy score...

[bobemmerich]

Got this today. I have no use for it, but the price was right. It needs some cleaning, a new lock and an emblem. The rust is just some slight surface-some rubbed out with a wipe from my hand-Does anyone know if Kennedy sells the emblems?

That is one of the mechanics boxes. I have the mating top and intermediate I bought new in the lat 70's or early 80's.

Not sure about emblem availability but a call to them or an Email to their service department should answer that.

No use for it? Make it into a tool stand for a chop saw or bench to DP.... Put a steel plate top on it and make it into a welding bench. Lots of options...

Good first score, you cant go wrong with a Kennedy ! Im still looking for my first

Those are cool boxes, We have one at work by a cnc lathe to hold some inspection tools and machine tooling.

Well, its not that I have "no use for it", I just don't have any room. I'm gonna be restoring my Mustang, and garage space will be at a premium. Too bad, because I like it.

Very Nice. My neighbor gave me my first big box, top and bottom, and didnt know til jus recently that its been a Kennedy the whole time. His flat black box/yellow drawer paint scheme must've thrown me off lol

 

[bobemmerich]

Yeah, they are nice. Does anyone know if there is a way to date these? The drawer sticker is still there, I can look tonight when I get home.

Put it in the living room and use it for a TV stand.

This is GarageJournalDotCom you know. A new build thread would be welcome and then you'd have room for your new favorite box (well this week).

Dave, also has that box and some.

I have a Kennedy older then that one that I don't think every held a tool. I made s simple wood top and use it as a service cart. I like it better then the several service carts from blue point, mac and cornwell I have had in the past. By the way, nice roller.

Trust me, I'd LOVE to do a build, but I'm on a city lot and don't have the room. My neighborhood is zoned Commercial/Residential, so I COULD build a nice shop IF I had the room. Then again, I do hate yard work and all.....
