Real or fake? Matco

[angels28476]

Hello everyone I found this box for sale and I was wondering if it was a fake? Anyone know anything about the pro series badges?

Probably Real, Although I'm not sure if I ever saw a Matco box that small. Early 2000's Matco boxes had that badging, not their top tier series.

How is anyone here going to be able to definitively id that as real or fake?

Actually I have a simalar matco box. identical paint, badges and series. A lot of guys say these were the last of the heavy duty matco boxes built. Thicker gauge steel and better slides. Mine was built in 98 or 99 I beleive, bought it from the original owner who was a body man. I'd say this box is real

They can if they have the matching catalog of that era. I might have one.
