KRL1003BPC

I'm not sure about posting here to sell something but, here goes.
I've decided to sell my Snap On tool box and get something smaller for the garage, and this would free up a couple bucks to help re-finance the house. Like alot of places our's went down in value.
I have a VARY nice Snap On KRL1003BPC that i bought new 6 yeas ago. Then I paid $7500 for it, the box is now list for $10,695 and is in great shape. It has 23 drwaers, liners in all drawers, and a plywood/particle board top to keep the rubber mat from being damaged, has a Snap on vynal cover that has been on it since new.
I'd trade another large box and cash difference or it can be purchased for $5000 cash, it's listed on "The List" for $5500! It measures 72"wide, 46" tall, and drawers are almost 30" deep, with ball bearing sliders.

alright well let me know wr. And if you decided you wanted to drop the motor off and leave the car for a later time i dont have a problem letting you take the title with you so you have it.

as far as rust its mainly the floorboards of the truck. the cab corners look fine in it there is one spot where it looks like i would actually have to take off the bed to patch but for right now i would be happy just getting my floors to where they didn't flex (bad patch job by po) and so i don't feel like gonna fall through them.

Hey Whiskey, is that a '69 Mustang Grande in the back there, or the later '71-'73 body style? It's kinda hard to tell in the pictures.

lol nah you can wait on the welder i dont have the metal for the job yet anyways and knowing me i would probably get sidetracked by my truck and never put the engine in the chevy then .

WR that bus just look awesome.

The story I heard was, he already HAD '79 Headlight buckets and he needed '77 Headlight buckets. .....and turn signals.

No rush, Rich. Me and Bob don't have to have our grills right on Monday.

Besides, I got a new toy to play with. I bought a '64 Chevelle last night like I had back in the '80's. I'm actually going to clone the original car. It was plenty famous where we grew up. Lots of stories and memories in that car.

My first car was a 73 Ford truck...

with the motor mount and clutch the way there are in that eagle i wouldn't chance driving it there i really dont think it would make it over a 1/4 way there even. Truck would probably make it if i absolutely had to drive it down there but my clutch in it is pretty weak also.
