Legend has it that the original owner is still paying the snap-on toolbox off @ only $50 a week.
Ya that is ver possable hahha. Thanks for watchin
You ain’t kidding
The snap on sales rep has been looking for that for over 40 years wanting to repo. that thing .
Hahaha probally thanks for watchin,besure to like and subscribe for more tips and tricks.
Nice find 😊 I'm trying to research my find as best I can and found your video. I recently picked up a snap on KRA-280 box with a full 1/2" socket set and full spanner set for +-$32 (R600 South African)😅
Very nice! That's my greatest fear, getting too old (or worse) to be able to use my tools, and having someone just toss them all.
Ya that is always a fear of mine too, but there will always be the few that dont know the real value of something
You know not one of the many cars and motorcycles I've fixed over the years have ever complained about the low quality tools I used to fix them !.... 🤣🤣🤣
Haha ya that's true,thanks for watchin.
Fun video to watch. I have a pretty big collection of tools I've found on the highways. Mostly Snap On.
Found a long-handle 1/2" ratchet in the dirt of my local dump last summer. Turned it over: Snap On. Cost about 50 cents. Keeps me going back there.
Thanks for watchin really apreciate it.
Same here, 1/2" Snap On Ratchet....rusted so bad I sand blasted the rest of the chrome off. It looks kinda cool now. I keep oil on it but there probably is some metal treatment that you can add. Funny how life can be so rough that small things like this really give you some peace and quiet. An old ratchet.
@@Dancing_Alone_wRentals I hear you. Reminds me of the line from Color of Money: "Money won is twice as sweet as money earned.".
Find a snap on toolbox full of tools at the dump. Next thing I’m doing is buying a lottery ticket.
Ya I did it didient work out as well as that though. Thanks for watchin
Ive done it a few times lol never found much of anything good though. A few craftsman a gold snapon wrench bluegrass tools and a lot of chinese tools
great you got a box of rust
Well......restore the box .most of the tools are obviously crap but still tools. Good roadbox.
Thanks for watchin teally apreciate it
restore it, old school rules!
Thanks for watchin
I would to I got two side cabinets I restored and a middle box made by. mac I just started looking for more tho
Hudson thanks for watchin I'm I'm hopein to eventually have mix between 60s and 70s era complete box by snap on or mac tools.
I have a very similar looking Snap On box someone gave me a long time ago. I didn't know it had any value its in a little better shape than yours. I took it to restore, as I need storage for my shop and have just started to restore during this covid 19 I have the time. Good luck with yours.
Thanks for watchin I may be doing the same soon too. Besure to like and subscribe
Sweet - cheap at twice the price
I'd keep the patina heck yeah I'd be jazzed up too. I'd gen some Pentol or linseed oil on there.
thanks for watchin really apreciate it
Nice tool box
I just got this same snap on top chest today.. with the matching 7 drawer rolling cabinet..
I got mine for free too, but I got mine from a family friend that was moving
They are cool boxes I'm gonna restore hopefully in the future. Thanks for watchin and be sure to subscribe
@@fixergoodlooking forward to the restoration video!
From what I can see , it looks like a KRA-56 or 57 ... Pretty sure those were both 6 drawer boxes ...
Thanks for watchin really apreciate it
Great score. Some nice looking tools
Thanks for watchin
The secret to heavy rust removal is to use a good grinder with a knotted wire cup. 60 grit sandpaper is also helpful.
Thank you for the tip I will try that when I restore it, I was thinking of tearing it down and haveing it sand blasted, thanks for watchin besure to like and subscribe for more tips and tricks.
Sandblasting is the way to go.
Thanks for watchin
I just inherited the exact same one from my father in law also full of tools. In the process of restoring it right now. Its a great tool box
I'm going to do the same soon ,thanks for watchin
Great find! definitely restore!👍
Thanks for watchin I think I'm going to it's a nice box, be sure to subscribe
Nice find
Just found this exact box in a dumpster after a house in the neighborhood was renovated by the bank...
Yours is in a little better shape, would love to see the restore vid
@@ReelSpider thanks for watchin I'm still planning on it just havent done yet
That is an old Snap-On KRA-59. It is pretty beat up but it could still be used for a practical purpose. That tool box used inexpensive friction slides whereas newer boxes use ball bearing slides. When used on utility trucks, where they take a beating, they don't break like tool boxes with ball bearing slides.
Thank you for watching my video I really apreciate ut, I was thinking the box was from the 60s or 70s is that seem about right. Thanks again for watchin. And be sure to like and subscribe.
@@fixergood If you go to the back, typically the lower right corner, you can read the model number and year of manufacture. Snap-On only stamped in the last two digits of the year, so 1972 would appear as 72.
Thank you for the information I will go check thankyou
I have the same box with matching bottom, what are they worth now. mine is scratched and faded but no rust?
I would restore it
That is the plan thanks for watchin and besure to like and subscribe.
I know this is a long shot. But does anyone know how to remove the lock cylinder on this type of snap on tool box? I have one and need a key made but I gotta get the cylinder out, snap on doesn't make keys for it anymore as far as I can find
what i was told by the snap on truck guy in I'm my area if your able to get a number off the lock like what number it is they can still find you a key but this was a few years ago now.
I'm looking here because yesterday I got the same Box top and bottom with the keys and catalog in perfect condition and it's a 1965.
That's really sweet, I would love to have a matching set like that they are cool boxes. Thanks for watchin besure to subscribe to get more helpful tips .
about the only good thing was the flex head ratchet. The rest waas junk
That's a pretty good find were you able to determine how old the toolbox is cuz if I can remember correctly older Snap-on Tools aren't they worth a lot more
This ones from the late 60s I'm pretty sure thanks for watchin besure to like and subscribe for more tips and tricks.
@@fixergood did you do a video restoring it
Yeah I buy tool boxes here and they're full of tools for good prices and half of the times I keep the tool box and sell some of the tools off that I can't use
No I have not yet hopefully I will soon I wanna do a premium job on it that's what holding me up with getting everything togather for it hopfully soon
woe, thats about a $5k finding and original owner still hasnt paid off
Hahah ha sounds about right thanks for watchin.
😂😂👌
That's so cool that the ratchet is 200
I would warranty it !
thanks for watchin
Nice score! Did you fix it up?
I am currently restoring a snap-on toolbox for my rangerover ex recovery vehicle
Good luck thanks for watchin
How do you know it’s a snap on box and not just a snap on sticker on a random red box
It has the snap on serial number stamped on the lock. Thanks for watchin besure to like and subscribe .
fixer good please restore it that box is legendary
That tool box looks identical to my JH Willams box from the mid 1960’s
Thanks for watchin I'm kinda curious if it is ,thanks for watchin.
On the front face of the lid that closes their will be a sunken embossed oval where a JH Williams decal was placed. Very cool find and a well made box.
The reason I left that box at the dump is because THOSE TOOLS ARE CURSED! You have made a terrible mistake!!!
Hahaha that makes a lot more sense now. Thanks for watchin besure to like and subascribe
You did good.Sure pays to recycle.
Yes it does, thanks for watching
Nice find but not full of tools.
looks like a 1960
Not trying to hate but when the video started The bottom drawer was not open but when you went to it the video cut and the bottom drawer was a little bit open so this video might be a little bit fake with that snap on ratchet
Well, did you fix it up?
I haven't yet I got lots of projects, thanks for watchin
@@fixergood
I used to have a similar one, wish I still did! I spent a memorial day weekend sanding and painting it. It was really cool.
I'd keep it and fix it up. Send it over
