Snap-On socket score

[Don 18]

Answered a local ad that turned out to be a pawn shop. They gave me a good price over the phone for a couple sets of Snap-On sockets. I went straight to the store from work as I figured that this stuff would move pretty quick (and it did ) . I walked out with:

1/4" drive shallow 4-15mm (but missing the 12mm )
3/8" drive shallow 6-19mm
3/8" drive semi deep 8-19mm
3/8" drive deep 8-19mm

They show mild wear and a couple chrome chips on the business ends, but all around I thought it was a pretty decent score for $180

Oh yeah, the wife got roses, so she thought she did good too

Here they are after a quick wipe down

I'll say, I just checked retail pricing to put them into my inventory and all I can say is wow. Well worth taking time to clean all the gunge out of them!

Well done... and you, oh never mind

(p.s. is that an RS 125 in your avatar?)

Not even a Honda, its an FZR400

Wow, it looks so thin, I've had my eye on FZR400s recently but yours looks different in track trim. Cool

Yup I couldn't get my wallet out fast enough

The FZR is pretty cool, we did a bunch of work to it:
Penske shock
Flatslides
4.5" * 17" GSXR rear wheel
TZ250 front wheel with floating rotors
Total loss ignition
Motor work (+4mm overbore, with Kawasaki pistons & FZR600 liners)
etc.... etc....

Chopped off every part that wasn't needed.... and then bent, broke, destroyed and replaced every part that was needed
