Willis-Jones Valve reseater saved from perdition
« on: March 01, 2012, 02:46:32 PM »
I am slowly cleaning out a very old Pontiac dealership.

This week I unearthed a Willis Jones valve reseater set.

I dont know if it's complete, but I think there may be some extras.

anyone have experience with these?

Thanks

Nice, Skip! Looks good. Sorry I can't help with function, all I have experience with is a Sioux Grinder.

If you could post another pic it would be helpful.  But that is quite a find, wooden case, am betting its been back on the shelf for a few decades.  It  looks to be steel cutters, turned by hand?
