I am not trying to take away from the original toolbox, but being yours is not in good shape makes it that much more special, being its your dad's.  Priceless.

Dang Larry, wish I was your neighbor! You got lots of cool stuff I'd be carrying home! And a good stash of ski I'm told too, for those over the fence discussions we'd have!  Here's to you "neighbor"!....lol

Yes.   It's one of the few things I have of his that survived from when he was medically discharged from the military in '43 and enrolled in a machinist apprenticeship.  It was his first purchase after he became a machinist in I believe '45...  So you could offer me a million dollars for it and I'll tell you or anyone else to hit the road. NFS.
