KR-132 carburetor case and tools

Post by daviddiag »

I have this old box, that I believe is a KR-132, similar to one shown on pg-017 of the 1955 catalog V. My lower compartment, center area is divided into two sections, instead of three as the catalog shows.

Mine does not have the brackets in the lid to hold info card or documents. I found KRA-132 in the 1958 catalog pg009, but its compartments are configured differently.

The tools found in the box consists of about 50% of Stromberg set 2023-MCS including sockets TMC-37 and TMC-38, date coded 1951. I saw 1948 date on one of other pieces. Carter set 2077-MCC is mostly complete with any missing covered by Carter equivalent numbers, as noted in catalog. There are duplicates between Snap-On and Carter so Carter is well covered. There are no Holly, and only one Rochester float gauge, not Snap-On.
My feelings are, that this may have been a GM dealer special tool set, because of the Carter equivalent tools.
Is this stuff rare? Any Info and interest appreciated...
