Old 6 drawer tool box
I recently picked up an old 6 drawer tool box from a local antique store. It’s got an old logo on it and generally looks exactly like the one in this post https://www.collectingsnapon.com/forum/ ... f=1&t=2187. However, mine is green and where is is worn out appears to be a light greyish color. There is no indication it was ever red unless every piece was completely stripped. The paint also has an interesting texture to it. The front cover holes for a handle are only 3/4” apart and there is no stamp on the box anywhere other than a ‘MADE IN USA’ on the back. Based on the one in the link I’m guessing mine is a little older? It’s 26”x15”x12”. I see locks are relatively easy to find but what about slides? They’re the old friction slides and a few are missing the clips and one is wavy and bent making it hard to open

Re: Old 6 drawer tool box
Last ones. You can see the weird texture on the underside of the lid and on the drawer faces. It’s like that on the inside of the box behind the drawers as well.
