SEMI-RARE VULCAN TOP CHEST

[dimwittedmoose51]

First one of these I've seen and remotely remember it being tied to J.H Williams in some form or fashion.  Bundled some stray tools in a box for a combo deal at one of the largest home based tool sales I've ever been at, and I missed out on day 1  !!.   This box is 31" wide, 18"  deep and 19" tall and weighs right at 123# empty!!   Made by the Metal Box Company in Chicago in 1973, this thing is a brute of a tool chest.  Not much on the internet about them, but it's tempting to keep this one and replace one of my other shop storage units.   Just a couple of flaws in the top lid hinge and the chains appear to have been "aftermarket" additions.  I put it on Craigslist, but not sure now if I wanna sell it.  What say the tool chest gurus of the forum??

It wouldn't be rational to sell Spock's toolbox.

Purty nice.

 if you are having 2nd thoughts about selling it, take it off CL until your mind is clear.

I wonder if that company is related to the old Anvil manufacturer...

no it was a mobile tool company. A subsidiary of United-greenfield.

its a pretty sweet box, I think. I would probably keep it unless I got a pretty good offer,

DWM,

It's a KEEPER.

Sell one of your lesser chests instead.
