    Be careful, one of your photo's says "This side up" and it is turned sideways.

    The shoes, are they part of the tool kit? How many points?

    Can't believe they don't make rulers in the USA anymore....

    Thanks Tom. It's hard to read the ruler in your photo. Is it 185mm or 190mm in overall length?

    didn't measure

    configuration, branding, and "chrom vanadium" writing was the novelty

    I think they were 190mm, from experience

    Tool kit was shipped yesterday, just wanted to document this unfamilar set of pliers
    (UNFAMILAR DOES NOT MEAN WRONG!!!)

    most of those pliers displayed are 190 mm, but with variations. are there reproductions being made for each variation, or is a generic chrome 190 mm plier only being reproduced?

    Has anyone made pliers beside myself?

    Do not believe so

    Set up takes times, dedication and plenty of $$$
    Production runs are large
    Really not cost effective.

    Hi Tom, (and other possible tool experts)
    I have a 330 GTC, 66, and completing the right tool kit for this car (early model with single bag).
    Amongst other tools, I get from a friend pliers who look as Tom describes for a 330 GTC (190mm, cross hatch on handles, and notch at the rotating location).
    I have just one question: how was the exact finish for these pliers in 66 for this 330 GTC (CAD silver, chromed, black steel?)
    Thanks for your answer.
    BTW, Tom, do you have, for this 66 car, an oil filter Carello wrench as I saw it in one of your editorials?
    Or any one having an original ?
    Jean-Paul
