Looks like a KRA-59 (9 drawer), KRA-56 (6 drawer) and a modified(?) KR-652
To my knowledge (which isn't much) I don't think they ever made the 652 or "taco wagons" with that configuration. It looks like actually a few drawers are switched around. Ex. only 6 drawers on the long side, should be 7 from the factory. And the questionable end with the doors should have 2 shallow and 4 deep drawers. Instead in that one it has 4 shallow drawers and then the open area. :headscrat

BTW, I think their price is a bit high, especially considering the condition, but then again if it is full of high quality tools? It could be a good deal. :dunno:

zkling, I took a look today at these boxes. One box is a KRA-61C, 1975. The other is a KRA-56C, 1977. I was unable to find a model number on the bottom box. All of the boxes are full of tools and junk, probably more junk than tools, but some of the tools are old. There are no keys for any of the boxes. The exteriors are abit rough, but salvageable.

I don't think my other half is going to let me pull the trigger on this. I think I have someone else interested in the big box, and I wanted one or both of the top boxes. Ah....dream a little dream.

O.. my apologies I mistakenly said KRA59, for what is really a KRA61, same layout, just 5-6" longer. Sorry about that. Actually that makes it a better deal, kinda.

I still think the price is pretty high. The boxes look pretty rough. I would say ~$100-125 each for the top boxes. Then MAYBE and I mean MAYBE $300 absolute tops for the bottom, but more like $200. So you figure ~$400-$500 MAX for the boxes. Do you see ~$500 worth of tools in the drawers?

Without seeing it in person, I personally think ~1/2 or even less of what they are asking is more realistic. They look pretty rough in the (crappy) pics. :dunno:
