Antique Truck Show + Tools +More
« on: July 08, 2018, 06:44:32 PM »
Hello, I went to a local Antique Truck Show this morning. There were some great looking vehicles there, farm related, military, Chevy, Ford, etc. My favorite was an antique Ford Flatbed with an antique Ford Pickup on board. There were a few vendors, so I couldn't resist, and brought a few things home. All of the folks there, vendors, staff, and and collectors, were very friendly, and informative, great little venue!!!

I wanted to go, but stayed home and worked on Project 39-1/2 motorcycle and made some progress.  What are the little glass things?

What is the name for the larger female ratchet?  I thought S-K made it or was it Hinsdale.  I always called it flip-flop.
The ORIGINAL Northwoods.

Hello, The glass jars are dairy creamer bottles, un-marked, probably restaurant grade. Regards, Lou

Hello, Northwoods. The flip-flop is stamped PAT NO. 798481 CHICAGO U.S.A.. The smaller, stamped steel body ratchet is an S-K. Any thoughts on the large stamped steel sockets? Regards, Lou

I have had several of that large style of ratchet. All were no name models.

I sort those big stamped steel sockets to the "hubcap wrench" drawer.

But they could be for spindle nuts or any other low torque application.
