ParX ratchet

[alton1911]

I enjoy collecting sockets ratchets and wrenches. I have, a unique hunting ground that makes it possible for me to find massive numbers of tools that have been layered over years. I have been hunting this same place once or twice a week for over a year. Everyone knows me by first name, mainly because my name is printed on my credit card and also on my uniform shirts... but it still makes me feel welcome. I have barely scratched the surface of the tonage available. I said all that to justify having just discovered some very beautiful tools that are finally getting my attention.
Yesterday I found a ParX ratchet.
Rough shape, but very cool.







Any information about this brand would be great. I think it’s a economy class product of Snap-On. But that’s all I have on it. I would be interested in learning more about it.
Thanks

If you are ever going through North central Texas, West of Fort Worth, I would be glad to show you around.

I also have a couple of sockets and a wrench. Oddly enough both sockets are 3/4. Left is 1/2 inch drive 6 pt. Right 3/8 drive 12pt.
The wrench is 13 mm. Combination.
