I bought this box as i got offered it off a very nice man who remembered i was into collecting snap on and had met him at a car show when i did a display of anniversary snap on when i was about 12 years old, iv had it since i was 13 now im 20 i paid about about £200 7 years ago i think maybe £150 but price doesn't matter it use to belong to a soldier that had kept it in his bedroom as he just liked the look of it i don't know the model of it as at some point its been covered in stickers of all kinds some very nice snap on ones and quite a lot of isle of man TT stickers must be a keen biker, it has never had any tools in it in its life just really is nice but there is just a tad bit of rust in the odd spot but really is not much but thats great british weather for you but a great box if anyone would know what the model number is let me know thanks.

The bits in the pictures you can see that looks like rust is just wax oil i coated them in a few years back just so they kept at there best.

That is a KRA58D, looks to be very late 1970s or early 1980s (I have one identical to that which I bought new in 1978 or 1979).

Model number and date code will be stamped on the back somewhere.
