at bathurst showgrounds weather looks good out this way if anything a little warm based on the news last night 28 degrees for tomorrow

Sometimes I hate living in Perth

Definitely going to move over to the dark side when I finish up working overseas.

See you nice and early tomorrow Mick.

So who went and what did you score?

I bought an old tin boxed Iimperial Dufor socket set that I didnt need,cos it was so cool and only 25 bucks.

And then when I was leaving I stumbled on an old Rota brand tool box,with a cantilever lid and 3 sliding draws in almost new condition,also for a bargain price of only 20 bucks.

I'll post up some pics a bit later.

I gotta say,Im pretty stoked.

The socket set came with some extra bits and pieces,all good stuff, but is missing 4 items from the set.

Its missing a 3/8 socket

The short adapter for the ratchet

And 2 other things that I dont know.(The label says 18 pieces,I only have 14)

If anyone can identify the other missing pieces I would be grateful.(something else to keep my eyes peeled for at swap meets.)

Vintage Aussie tools rule!!!!!

HR hub caps for my fat steel wheels
40 bucks had a set in my ebay watch list sold today for $102

I got a tool box like that from the tip about 6 month ago, the only diff is it has 3 draws side by side that open only when the lid is up .

Eh front guard, set of 14 inch flappers, grey motor balancer puller, 1950 s bayko construction set instructions, twin carbs set up for a red, triple su gtx manifold.
Oh yeah large pink plastic fairy castle.

Some nice scores there. That toolbox is brilliant

You did good with those old toolboxes.
