New old side box

[Sycan]

Snap on truck had this old side box this morning that he took in on trade. Almost the same vintage as my home box that I've had for years, thought they made a good pair. $175 for the side box. I keep very basic tools at home since the service truck is usually here, and was able to empty the craftsman top and send it one step closer to the scrap pile. Poor thing has been in two different service trucks and is beat to death.

Looks good. Ive got one of those too, but with the newer name badge.

Hell yeah! That looks good together

Is that a KRA-380 Lower? Looks like a twin to mine. Nice score on the side box!

Nice pickup.

Do you know the box model number and date?

 

[Sycan]

Not sure how to date them. 1978 & 1979 maybe

Sycan - great-looking setup. I'd love to pick up one of those side boxes, but the one on CL in Florida is a bit of a stretch...

you could drive down in a day, it's not that far

Yeah, Right!! I could buy it a seat on a non-stop flight for less than the gas money - LOL!
