Proto Tool Box -- Very Rough Condition (before & after repair/cleaning)
 |
| This is during the cleaning. I didn't take pictures but there were many small dents in the lid that needed hammering out. Also, the lid was bent and misaligned to the box, so it was also hammered back into shape so that the fit is better. The box bottom was bent outward so it wouldn't sit flat, so I hammered it back closer to flat so that the box will sit flat. The lock flap & tab were bent back to be straight and fit better. In the end, functionally, the box is pretty good now. I got this box for free so just some elbow grease to make it more functional and useful again. Plus, it's Proto brand which is related to Plomb. |

| This is after cleaning. It's been rinsed with water & is drying in the sink. |
After cleaning
 |
| Turned out pretty good after all the repairs & cleaning. Now it just looks like a well used but decent old tool box. |
 |
| It's missing the tray. Will look for one at one of the future swap meets. |

| Really like all the variety of wheels on all the cars... |
 |
| This bus has an extra large bed on it with drop sides. It's wide enough to hold a race car & would make a pretty cool transporter for an old formula 500, V or Ford car... |
