Drawers work fine for lighter items and are lined if I remember. I bought the top and bottom boxes in pink for my wife and she has makeup in it. I saw the Bel-Air box in the flyer - looks really nice!

I was looking at getting the belair one, but my snap on guy had no idea when or if he could get them. I think I have 8 or 9 sets of the mini boxes. A couple of them I have had items in them for over 3 years and the drawers get open several times a week. The drawers are sloppy but I have never had an issue with them opening or closing.

I also have a mini Matco box which is much bigger with 4 opening drawers and holds alot more stuff.

Here is my micro box. A good friend of mine worked at the SnapOn corporate HQ in Kenosha and gave this to me a number of years ago.
The tools are very small, actually too small to use on my Microcars.

I have 2 of the top boxes and 1 roll cabinet of their original boxes made in 1936, very well built, the wife took them over for jewelry boxes, she loves them.

I would love to get some SO mini boxes but they go for ridiculous money on Ebay and I no longer have access to a truck. Please post pics of the Bel Air box when you get it!
