I need some help in identifying a tool box that I came across today. Seller states that it is a snap on.

To me it doesn't look like a true snap on box. I could (most likely) be wrong, but just wanted an expert's opinion.

Also, what do you think a fair price for this box is?

Thanks in advance

I bet it was nice before it fell out of the back of the truck... Not an expert on who originally made it but to me a beat to **** box is a beat to **** box no matter who's name is on it. Unless you're a very good & very bored body man it's not worth much.

Seriously it reminds me alot of an old box I had many years ago that we used when we went to the local dirt track to race. We kept a bunch of mixmatched tools in it and it bounced around in the back of the truck from racetrack to racetrack. Got left out in the rain, covered with mud, etc. I still had it up until I moved from NH to Tennessee but when I moved I decided it wasn't worth bringing with me so I dumped the tools into a 5 gallon bucket & left the box behind. I do have several other nice boxes filled with top quality tools so the space that old box would have taken up in the trailer when we moved was better used for other things. If it's free and you need a box you don't care about to throw in the back of a truck it's great. Other than that walk away.

Contrary to some statements. It is not junk. I have bought rougher boxes and took the time to take them apart and used my anvil and a steel plate and a couple of body hammers and straightened them up real well. I have a kennedy upper and lower that I worked over and made a real nice box out of them.
If your handy with your hands I'd pay $20 for it and make it nice.

Thanks all. He is asking $50 for it. I will definitely pass. I was just wondering if anyone could confirm that it is or is not a true snap on box.

Thanks again
