Snap On box numbers

[ironheadtom]

Someone asked me for the model and year of this box and I can't seem to find them anywhere. I don't believe it's been repainted, and I've looked especially in the rear. Can anyone enlighten me?

KRA-59... If I recall correctly

Maybe it's like an improperly stamped penny and it's woth millions!

Looking from the back should be lower right corner. I just bought the exact same thing the other day, but yours looks in better shape.

The vintage is around 1978 I think. It is model 58C or something like that. I'll check and post.

Look real hard in good light...preferrably natural light...on the back. There should be an engraving there somewhere. If this one isn't on the back, it's likely somewhere else.

IIRC, the first KRA 59 came out in the late '50s and weren't stamped. Snap-on only started stamping them later. My KRA 59C is a '76. Here is a link to the '71 catalog

Thanks, I'll look again but I'd swear this thing isn't stamped. Only thing I know for sure is that it feels like it weighs about 200 lbs!

Well wattya know? Right where you said it was. Bottom right looking at rear. ***** to be old and blind. KRA 59C Ser. I958268 Thanks for the help!

Mine is stamped just 58C. There is also a date stamp, 76 for 1976
