All things considered, that's a solid deal. If I didn't already have one...lol.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

It's a fair price. I saw one on cl go in a day here for 1800.

I wish it was within driving distance for me...
That's one of my long term goals. I know, they are not as practical, but there is something about this old Art Deco style.
As for the price - even though it looks large at first, just cut your cable for less than a year or give up buying coffee in Starbacks for some time. I bet looking at this piece in your garage will bring more happiness!

 

[Oldtuleguy]

They are not big, but I have one at the shop and it rolls nicely and holds all of my brake job /shock strut stuff.

This one's also available for $450 in metro Detroit

I want that little middle section!

In a dozen years plus of looking online at toolboxes for sale, that toolbox is the first one of those I've seen.

Kra 500 roller, 510a chest, 1964 to 1968.kra 520a center section (not available until 1967). Mine is a 64 so no center section.

Didn’t know they made boxes that big in that era...?

 

[Oldtuleguy]

These were the first ones. Very few sold for some reason. Maybe too expensive, or just before their time.

Do you still have the contact information for this one?

 

[Shelbylex]

The original post is 2018...
I wish there was one within my range for 450 !!!

 

[rg171352]

It was, but you never know what may still be out there for sale. I wish the same. Really nice example.

 

[thehorse13]

The same setup sold here recently for $600. They do come up every so often but you have to be ready to pounce immediately.

 

[rg171352]

Which set up? The kra500?

 

[rollinbollin]

Wish I could have bought the 500!

I have just picked up this one and it has a date code of 67 KRA-510A and 70 KRA-500A. The interior is in excellent shape - it appears as though no tools were ever put in the drawers.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

Sweet. Still has the woodgrain sticker. Finished the repaint on mine.

 

[jushutch]

I also have a 68 KRA-500A and a 67 KRA-520B. I am going to sell the 500A and refurb the 520B.

 

[Oldtuleguy]

I would not sell any of those. They are way too cool

That is a major unicorn.
