The factory tools are Vlcheck or McKaig-Hatch in my experience. | | | | | Joined: Nov 1995 Posts: 5,714 Bond Villain | | Bond Villain Joined: Nov 1995 Posts: 5,714 | Mike, That appears to be a Bonney Forge & Tool Works tool post wrench. If you want to learn more about old wrenches, there's a great web site called Alloy Artifacts It's where I looked up the patent stamp/trademark on your wrench. The "25F" is the old way ("Standard") to identify wrenches before they just labeled them with the sizes. Nice wrench! John

A few slides earlier in that album is a photo of a complete tool kit (I do not know if this is a McKaig-Hatch or Vlchek kit). There was no adjustable wrench in the 47-55 tool kit; and, the plug socket would have matched the size of spark plug for that year (duh). | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 | I have been having all kinds of trouble with my photo links at that site. One whole folder is missing I will see if I can figure it out and repost. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 388 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 388 | That did it Brad, Thanx!
