Bonney Tire Carrier Wrench 678225
« on: June 01, 2017, 05:44:54 PM »
Picked up one of these today and have learned a little about them.
Never saw one before, though it seems that everyone else in the world knows of them.
Anyway, mine, like the one in the link below has the Studebaker emblem as a mirror image.
What's up with that?  BTW, one seller claims it is from the 40's and 50's.  Anyone have any thoughts on the date?

Doesn't look forged.  Cast??

I've got one. I believe it's for a [size=78%]Studebaker truck, year unknown.[/size]
