Hello guys first thread here.... I can not believe the amount of knowledge here , outstanding.
Any ways, I always being a car guy but with all the responsibilities is hard to find time to unveil passions sooooo.... Couple months ago my wife came back from work complaining (of course) of a burning smell from under the hood, after inspection found that the serpentine belt was on the way out via seized bearing in the "pulley". Decided to tackle the job, only to find out I was a socket short to complete the job. I got so frustrated and decided to build my tool box and that's how I found this site GJ .

Trust me, I done the homework and in couple of month its all coming toghether. SCORE in Craig List a 70's Snap On tool box with seven drawers loaded with professional tools Snap on, Hazet, Mac, Proto, Craftman V ....too much to list, for only $200.00.
Lets put it this way< Too much for me, but you can never have enough tools! GOD BLESS AMERICA AND THE CRACK HEAD THAT SOLD ME THE TOOL BOX....



1 Item is uncertain, Mac brand "spring loaded socket"? no Part # need some advised .So here we go....

Thanks in advance

It looks like a wrench to remove really old style hubcaps (teens and 20's), but it looks to modern for that.

You know, you might be on to something.... It does look like the tool for removing center mount spoke rims that are commonly seen on lowriders.

How about this one....
If nylon or plastic, that is to remove centercaps from BBS and ACT 1 and 3 piece mesh wheels.

If BBS, it should be stamped BBS on the body and be black nylon/plastic.
Worth some $$$ as they are expensive new.
Ask me how I know...LOLOLOLZZZZZZZZ.

I have several.

e.g. of one of many wheels below.

jjjrmx5 is right..... stamp BBS w.germany And the material feels porous so I figure is on the nylon side you guys rock :rocker:

Also, here is a picture of the box with some electric tester , sockets , ratchets and misc.

That's a nice setup, a bottom and a middle box. Find yourself a matching top chest and you'd have one heck of a setup.

And this is....

One of the drawers was full of bolt, nuts, washers and misc. dump it on a bus tub and while classifying found this small"wrench" stamp Williams 5/16. Next, no brand ,chrome and a bit heavy for the size + odd looking.

I know if I use it with my sling shot it will be a weapon. LOL

That's one of Williams' lathe tool post wrenches..

The thing next to it, does it take a socket? Could use another picture of that. Looks like a socket adapter with a magnet tip.
