What Proto Tool is it?

[ChelleRee82]

It's marked as a 739 Proto Pat. Appl'd For. the only info was a radiator removal tool but I can't back up that information. Any solid information would be appreciated.

mm looks like some sort of seal pick

Hose tool maybe...

looks like the flat end you would step on to hold on floor while you pull up and the hook removes something from a pipe or hose.

Radiator hose pick for loosening & removing stuck radiator and heater hoses. Now I know I need one!

Ah! Looks like one of those. I've been looking for one for a long time.

Anything you need that you'd like to trade for? I try to acquire any Proto that I haven't seen before, and this fits that description!

With that info to search for, found several with google. Two sold on ebay in the past few weeks, wish I had seen them, they didn't bring much.

I recently picked up one of those. I found it listed in a Proto catalog as a radiator hose tool. Before that, I thought the hook end was for removing cotter pins.
