That Powrcraft speeder had to have been made by Wright.
Nice haul...it should take care of your weekly 'fix'.

Well, I need to finish the text on the lower set of photos.  We sorta mentioned the TRW Fender Cover, so the next photo had a new(to me) Indestro Auto Tool Kit with the appendage 1/4" hex drive stuff there too.  The hex ratchet is not of real high quality IMHO, but since I have no reference as to when this was made, it could be a price point kit.  The Auto kit below it I haven't separated out yet to see what's in there.

The tray of old stamped and antique type wrenches(maybe I should call them "non-plated") he originally wanted $5 for the whole tool box full, but that price dropped when he made the "package" deal.  There must be 30+ in there, and if any real keepers show up, I'll post separate photos.  They're still cool regardless of anonymity or not.

The tray of clamps he wanted a dollar for and that included the tray.  No brainer there.  Also in the tray was the Schaul plumbing wrench and the Bruno Tools(Beverly Hills CA!!) boring bit.  Never heard of them.  The bit is either a B-200 or 200-B, I forget.  The Speedway Drill was part of round two's purchase which had the two roller stools the drill, and 15 old country and western CD's which set me back another $10.  I think I got a Rigid PVC hand saw thrown in too.

The bottom photo has the damaged SnapOn screwdriver, the aforementioned Bluegrass DBE, an 8" adjustable, and a couple of name brand pliers.  Those wood trays had shade tree dovetail joints holding them together and when's the last time you someone go to that kind of trouble for storage???  The thumb screw press/ whatever is intriguing, but I'm not sure what you would press with just thumb pressure.  It has a point on the threaded shaft like it was there to stick into wood, but the key says not to use a wrench.

I apologize for all the scattered text here, but we have company this weekend and I'm cramming in what I can when I can.

The last tray of wrenches is finally photographed and the whole top row is no-namers as is part of the left side of the bottom row.  I think I counted 43 of them in that tray.

Starting from the 3rd or 4th  wrench fro  the left on the bottom row:  There's a Bonney an IH, a Moore, a Lakeside, a Dunlap, another Moore, a Mossberg, a Williams Whitman and Barnes,A Billings and Spencer, a Vlchek, a Ford, an Armstrong(the bigg'un), and 2 more Fords.  Now all I have to do is get the 38 wrenches from the ebay box cleaned and photographed and I can start mowing the yard....   nah!!
