Odd "side drawers".

[davidj]

that box is odd looking. i wonder what the purpose of that drawer setup was?

 

[Moose-LandTran]

It's called a Taco Wagon.

 

[mikevango]

Wow. That is a nice one. They are usually beat when I see them for sale

 

[glenmore]

That one is in great shape! Price is pretty decent too.

 

[chadster1]

I have never seen one in as good of shape as that one is

 

[35mastr]

Yes those boxes are usually pretty beat when they come up for sale. That one is real nice.

I never really understood that box...I guess it's for mechanics who like to do things ***-backwards....I guess there is a big market for them...

 

[Rickster]

Agree, the best shape I've ever seen one in. Price a bit high but he might come close due to it's great condition.

 

[mrholeshot]

Wow! Thats the best looking one I've seen in a while. It will have a shallow compartment on the back as well. Thats a very nice example (or looks like it) and those thing are tough as nails. I'd prob offer 800 on one that nice and if it works as good as it looks I may go the full asking price. Sometimes pictures can be deceptive both ways but it would def be worth going to look at. If thats the original paint I'd be all over that thing

Mostly aircraft mechanic used them. I know several techs that have them.

Yep. Looks brand new.

 

[mrholeshot]

What advantage do these boxes have over a traditional box?

For some odd reason they seem to be built stronger, maybe due to the configuration of the drawers, stucture of the box or the gauge of steel used, don't know for sure. I just now they were built to roll over long distances with a big load. Ive seen these with the casters worn down to near nothing and the box still solid as a rock.

 

[fordbroncodave]

did they ever make a top box for that?

 

[LIVELY]

THAT is worth checking on
very nice shape

 

[mrholeshot]

did they ever make a top box for that?

If they did I've never seen one. I normally saw a small top box on one end and the rest as workspace.

 

[bobcatdan]

I have seen several in person, if it can used away from a wall, it would be a very neat set up. It is about the size of the krl 1000, the drawers are not as deep, but it seems like more useable space overall.

 

[jride200]

did they ever make a top box for that?

If its popular among aircraft mechanics, the answer is likely NO; we need lots of workspace atop our boxes!

 

[diesel research]

goofy or *** backwards, are not even close to proper description.

While an amateur oil changing diy'er may think it isn't space efficient, while collecting dust along the side of their wall, others have to actually use their tools/boxes, and even drag their boxes to the job.

cool box, good price.

 

[supersportjim]

I have a taco wagon I bought from a family friend about five years ago. It's a very solid box. I love it.

 

[airdale]

Yer first clue about it's intended purpose should be the spring loaded casters.

 

[briggsguy17]

I don't think that the paint is original. Look at the casters, you can see what looks like a matching overspray. Very faint, but there.

Upon closer inspection I see what appears to be paint dust in the wheels. It just looks like the dead on color match

That guy has been trying to sell that thing forever. Yellow isn't the best color for a Taco Wagon

 

[Eric Nordstrom]

My machine shop owner has that one. It will hold a lot of weight!
