I post this up in the other thread but here it is again b/c i like showing off my box

 

my tool box.

 

Dont have any pics of mine right now its a craftsman paid like $2400 for the top and bottom and i thought that was bad when i paid that much for it I know when the tool guys would come around man like a kid in a candy store for sure. I tried concentrating on tools more too than the box it was hard enough to pay for the tools at the time let alone a 10-20k box for them but If would have had the $$ for one prolly would have had one for sure though

 

the only way id pay a bunch of $$$ for a box is if it was one of those with the old #3 on it!!!

 

My pit cart.


Not what I had originally wanted when I was looking at upgrading my old single bank Snap On box, but I got one hell of a deal on it. A friend of a friend was a Big Rig mechanic and got laid off, so he decided he was done and was going to retire. I just had to pay off the box.

I love the side lockers, but the drawers in the center are too shallow. I am going to pull out 2 and install a single, make better use of the space. No, I don't pull it around the shop. However, if we ever need to take a box to the race track, this is perfect. And the brakes work awesome! Fully loaded, on a trailer ramp, will bring the whole box to a full stop and hold it there!

 

WOW, that is all I can say. Can't see spending that much on a box, when I didn't pay that much for the truck I drive. The only way I would spend 14K + on a box, is if it was full of the tools I wanted / needed.

 

sometimes you can luck into a guy doin that but not to often jus gotta keep upgrading kinda like a truck get one have it for a little bit trader in for a newer one ya know what i mean. the snap-on fella was in last week and had a classic 78 that was 5800 he told me he would sell er for 4600 then my trade in box he would go 3800 on a brand new box. its temptin but i gotta do some other stuff first

 

Here's mine, not a great pic, but this is what 16 feet of toolbox looks like.

 

Impressive.....

 

my friend has the same size box, just the blue "Ford" one with the Mustangs all over it....
