Well my Corvette found a new home and the buyer didn't want the tools (said he wouldn't know what to do with them but paid asking price anyway). So guess I will dump them out on the floor and try to get a photo to post.

Well, it took a while to get to this but here are three photos of just the SnapOn and BluePoint tools in that box. There is an equal amount of a mixture of other brands in there too - at least weight wise.

Any comments on selling these and the box shown in the first post in this thread please pass them along, Tommy

Thanks for the pm - tried to send a reply to it but don't see it in my "sent" box so here goes again.

Thanks for the offer and wonder if it'd be less driving time and millage to Ft. Worth where we are moving to in May?

Yes, that would be a shorter drive.

Looking at the map I see we could meet half way in Vernon.

So I'll keep your offer in mind and after we move and if no one else offers a better price for these tools, I'll see about driving there if you still want them. My daughter attended college in Wichita Falls a few years ago and it'd be nice to stop there again too. There's always something going on in that city and maybe we could schedule a layover to attend something interesting there into our schedule too.

I bicycled the Wichita Falls Hotter-N-Hell Hundred with her several times in the mid nineties - think I'll pass now though.

Good Afternoon,
All the tools are separated - SnapOn & Blue Point into one 43.5 pound box; the remaining mismatched set into a 61.5 pound box; and the SnapOn box empty by itself weighs 75 pounds. So that is 180 pounds of metal to ship should anyone want to take me up on this offer to sell these old things. The SnapOn/BluePoint tools and the SnapOn Box have to go together. The other boxful can go to good will.
Found four more small SnapOn tools in the bottom of the box that are not shown in the photos. (three small screwdrivers and a 1/8" drift punch)
Thank you for looking, Tommy

A mod might need to move this to the classified section?

I would be willing to buy the "other" tools and pay the freight, if we can come to an agreement.
