The one thing you are still looking for
« on: July 29, 2015, 01:37:41 PM »
I guess this could be called the tool (bucket) list.   What one items keeps eluding you, wrench, hammer, or whatever.   Wander a few shows and swap meets and have seen so much I never knew existed.   But anymore I just think,,, naw, already got one  of those.   So what are folks here on the look out for?   Unobtainium, or always too pricey.

I have seen one of the rubber covered ones long ago, but it was in terrible condition. Shoulda bought it anyway.

 Would a Casaday cut out be asking too much ? Failing that a IHC 137 1/2 would be nice.

Turnnut,

 What does the 652 universal look like?  Similar to the 336?

stanley62,

  if you go to EB and look at item # 151020106574 and look at the 3rd picture, with the socket wrench board,

  on the shown board, it is the very top left tool  #652

  it is for the Ford Model - T  universal joint.

  I have that board and have been trying to find one of each tool for display. all the tools on
  that board is for the Ford- T
 
  I am also working on a Walden tool board that is for Ford Model -T 

  if that gets to be the last tool needed, I may try to make one to fill the space

  .
