There are colors for hard handles that are used on certain things.
The colors listed below are ones that were on picks and small Torx drivers.

There are no Factory Pink or Purple Breaker bars or Ratchets and no yellow handled ratchets. If you find one, please post a picture. I doubt anyone ever will.

I find it interesting that most people bought black or orange. if i had the option i would have bougth some of the more wild colors.

 

[sullyj]

Thanks a lot for this post, I am collecting the ratcheting screwdrivers and hard handle sets. My wallet weeps.

 

[caper]

Don't forget the turquoise colored BelAir series.It's a different shade than the other light blues I believe.

[mrshaun]

you need the new fathers day gray rat screwdriver

 

[voodoomotors]

can you buy just the handles anywhere? im restoring my 78 gmc k 35 and i use the stubby handles on column shifter, and on both transfer case shifters, and the small pick or scribe handles for turn sig and tilt handles, the reason im asking is im trying to get a set of yellow handles that would consist of 3 yellow sddi stubby handles and 2 yellow pick handles

 

[lugnut71]

They don’t make those in yellow anymore, even when then brought back hard handles couple years ago they didn’t offer stubby or mini ones

 

[Hagatronics]

Anyone got a photo of a full (or nearly full) set?
