Underhood storage box-found a new owner

Edit:
It's found a new owner. Please accept my apologies for the late notice, I had a heart attack and open heart surgery shortly after posting, and I just got my act together enough to post this up. Next one I find will go the same way as this one.

I found one during my safari to my favorite honey hole. I's intact, but the lid has a crack near the hinge, see the pics.

I paid $10, and I'll need shipping. I'll box it up nice and safe for you.

Frank - That's quite the find. And that lid can be repaired. In fact, if it were filled in and painted it would be difficult to detect the crack.

That's really cool. Where does it mount? What did it come off of?

Where the coolant/windshield washer reservoir is normally mounted.

Frank - If no one wants it then I'd like to have it. But I have others so don't need it. However, if you don't and no one else does......

My old 1980 had one. The washer/overflow mounted behind it. I am guessing it wasn't available if you had a diesel or aux battery with two batteries. The box is about the same size as a battery, I bet they move the washer/overflow reservoir into the same position for a dual battery truck.

Exactly, Dave. As shown on my web site, the aux battery and the tool box are mutually exclusive.
