somebody took my stubby ratchet

[ohpoppy]

I'm trying to identify my missing stubby ratchet, maybe somebody knows the brand and model. It was unmarked but a quality tool from the 60's or 70's. It is unusual looking, with a red vinyl cover on the handle and reversing switch looks like a knob similar to the photo. nicely chromed finish. 4 or 5" long. 3/8.

I got it at a garage sale.. I miss it and want to find a replacement. I enjoy using vintage tools..... maybe I misplaced it

looks like drawing

We have one at work with the same selector pattern. I think it's euro made but sure the brand.

Looking for the following Plomb Pebbles Wrenches 3060, 3061, 3070

Looks to me like the ampro, too. I had one not too long ago, there are a few versions of it depending on age, but I don't think any are too old. Think auto zone either carries them, or did at one time

yes it is... but I believe mine was made earlier then ampro made it... thanks guys

mine was really old.. looked like it came out of orville wrights tool box but worked perfectly. its amazing that it is still made

I liked the old look better but apparently it is available only down under now but I'll keep looking
