Title: Bolt Museum What's-Its
Post by: Papaw on February 13, 2012, 10:08:59 PM
The Bolt Museum in Oroville, Ca., is trying to ID these tools-
(http://email15.secureserver.net/download.php?rand=532236&folder=INBOX&uid=3104&part=2&tnef_part=-1&aEmlPart=0&orig=cid%3A7246C8FB-1799-4F29-A0AB-0A208717D24F&inline=1&filename=tlc0002-tlc00051.jpg&type=image%2Fjpeg&encoding=base64&)
If your response leads to the identification of any one of these tools, you'll receive an official
          "MYSTERY TOOL IDENTIFIER CERTIFICATE"
          and your name will be placed on the Tool Lovers Club,

Am I the only one who can't see the tools?

I see them, but I put them there, maybe that's a problem. I copied from the email I received from Bolt's.
Try the links.

Well, he's got one of them wrong....

The 'Gas Line wrench' isn't a gas line wrench (TLC0005)

It's a pinion nut flange holder for GM differentials. AKA J8614-1
It keeps the shaft from turning while you undo the nut.
Likely a KentMoore tool, but not certain without looking at it more...
