Tool kit question

Chas, yes, it is the Phillips.

You might try and contact 'TonyL' in the UK. Some time ago, he made some lovely repops.

I think Tom Shaughnessy also made some nice reproductions, although that might have been pliers.

Give him a shout.

Yes they are remade items, the patterns were all taken from originals.

 

So how do we ever know the real from the counterfeit?

 

Yours are real. That's all you really need to know.

How do I know yours are real? Because they were in the trunk of a pretty neglected car when I bought her, and at that point, the market had not realized any value in tools/books jack/ etc., so no one was yanking them out and selling them separately. And, no repops were available when I bought the car.

Oh, and no, the books and pouch are not ALL original to the car. I had to pick a couple of them up from a good friend who went out of his way to make sure they were from a car that was produced the same month at the factory. the warranty card, and, as I recall, the operators manual are original. The rest are age correct.

Here we go again - the unmarked fakey-do trying to pass as an original.

 

Patina is pretty easy to fake.

Send me a couple new repro screwdrivers, I'll make 'em look like they belong for free.
