I have a msc4 (newer model?) with gas hood shocks. It sold new for 700 and i bought it for 400 in like-new condition. with key, i should see no problem asking 250 for a quick sale, might be able to hold out for 350

I think this cart is more like the CART2D shown here except it does not have the gas struts but does have a split drawer on top:
Matco cart

The MSC4 cart is built a little different:
MSC4 Cart

I bought a mint MSC4 in blue this week for $350.00 if that helps any.

I replaced the lock on mine because I lost both of the keys. A new cam lock is only $5 at Home Depot.

That looks like an old MSC8. It should take a LOCK-024A which is a basic 5/8 camlock. I would bet money that Home Depot will have something that works.

You can always come down in asking price but, you have to realize that it's blue. Also, I'm not a Harbor Freight fan but, they have a similiar sized cart on sale for $99.99 in black right now. Did I mention it's blue? I've never heard of someone buying a cart to get the wrenches.. Congratulations on your purchase....:beer:

Finally sold the above cart to a Cycle tech from Seattle, for $275.

I paid $400 for cart and small amount of tools, mostly wanting the coveted MATCO Pro-Swing SAE Ratcheting Boxes and other MATCO tools that I still need to sell.

Some people still want that MATCO (or S.O.) label on the front of their box/cart, even though those Harbor Freight Models are a very good alternative.
