Have I missed something or is it that hard to find parts for tool kits? At least two folks must think so. 20 bids and counting:

There are at least five people that think it is worth much more than I do, particularly when a couple of items are not correct.

What is with these people. Do they not do any research or watch to see what the market is? Looks like I am gonna have to drop everything and start selling before all the fools run out of money.

$1111.55 was the winning bid. Even if it was correct I can't imagine paying anything close to that amount.

The economy is good some where in this world!
What is incorrect in the kit and are the colors correct?

Totally incorrect tools are:
Oil can
Grease gun
Ignition wrench
Air pressure gauge
Spark plug wrench

The screw driver, open end adjustable wrench, pliers and hammer are correct for many of the years listed ('24-'34).

The hub cap wrench is 4 cylinder.

The bag could have been used for 4 cylinder but it is not clear that a bag was supplied after the first years of production.

Sure looks different than the Kits I have for my 33-35 Cars.Bet the guy lost money on the shipping. At that price the shipping should have been FREE!Wish I could get a couple of Guys to outbid each other on items I have on E-bay!
