Here's some before and after shots of a used box I picked up. Didn't like black so I tried to give it some flash. Next I've got to put on some better castors, the hard plastic ones just don't cut it.
It looks better in person than in photos, may still add some more trim here and there, and build a maple top.

Looks nice! The only thing I would add, is for the price / status / reputation of a Snap-On KRL there shouldn't be ANYTHING you need to upgrade or change functionally (like the castors you spoke of). They should be so awesome it shouldn't even be a matter of taste or preference, everyone should feel like the castors are the best solution available. Just my two cents.

BTW - In my own personal fantasy I would love to have a royal blue KRL 7022 some day. Unlikely to happen for many years if ever - but I guy can dream can't he? I need to make some major steps in my career and finish my Model A restoration long before I could afford to drop a couple/few grand even on a used Snap-On box. Sigh.... Anyway - enjoy yours, Looks great!
