This is what happens when parents pass away and the kids inherit their possessions. The kids usually think it's junk and give it away. It's actually sad.
True. In this case I think it was more about him living in California and needing to get the house ready to sell.before my father died he donated a lot of his tools to a local vocational school. I got very little of what he had because I had moved out of state unfortunately.
The son sounded like he is useless like most men now days.
Sometimes it’s also a matter of limited time availability,

It just boggles the mind, what a haul!!
Mine as well. I remember when I first found out what was involved I walked back out to my Suburban and told my wife, "This is going to take a while." :)
Just the boxes alone would bring 500.00 Congratulations on your find. Your brother might need a few. Thanks for sharing!
💯👍👊
Yes, when I saw it was all three sets I wasn't concerned about what was inside because I couldn't lose for $500.
Yes, definitely send your brother some that I know he can use. I recently sent him a retractable test wire reel that gives 30 inches of a red/black wires that I know he will use to connect a missing coil wire to the battery.
If you are interested even I could use whatever you don't want or would be willing to purchase any tools you would like to sell.
Fantastic haul. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thanks for watching. I would bet I'll never find anything like this again.
Wow, what an unbelievable deal.
Thanks! I'm sure I'll never come across anything like it again.
Enjoyed the video and am looking forward to part 2.
Depending on condition, the boxes could be worth 500 empty.
Have a Jesus filled day everyone

Thanks! Once I saw how many boxes were included I just paid the man without even looking inside for that very reason. You can't find three sets of these, especially with one of the middle boxes for $500 let alone with all of the tools. Lots more in part 2 for sure. Happy Easter!
What a great haul. You can make some serious cash 👍👍👍💯💯
Thanks! I'm sure I'll never come across anything like this again.
Total sensory overload. What really caught my eye was was the collection of wood handled braces. I hope you got some of the bits too. I'm eagerly awaiting part 2 of this haul.
Agreed. There's a lot more to come in part two but to be honest, I still haven't unpacked all of it and this was three months ago.
You got an awesome deal my man!
Thanks! It was a once in a lifetime haul for sure.
Some of those old tools really put the 'rust' in rustic. 😉 I am looking forward to Part ii when we learn the back story. I hope you kept the Porter-Cable trim saw.
Thanks! Absolutely I kept that. I haven't tested it yet but I'll be doing a restoration video on it soon.
@@floridarusticrepairsIf you have any time to spare, I just found a web site called The Syracuse Project which has been created by a true expert on Porter-Cable tools.
That is a cool site. He's got a circular saw very similar to one I restored recently. I think he'll be a great resource. Thanks for the tip! @@rightlanehog3151
The Porter-Cable trim saw is still the one tool that I don't have in my collection. Funny...but cords are out of style so patience will find it. Great video!
@@floridarusticrepairsI am glad you like it. With approximately 68 Porter-Cable saws in his collection, it does not surprise me that he has one similar to your 146B. I have only scratched the surface of The Syracuse Project. His collection is impressive, his knowledge is encyclopedic and he is very articulate in his communication.
Since you have the boxes, uppers and lowers, I recommend cleaning and painting while you are running the tools through the solutions and create you a drawer for pliers, wrenches, ratchets, screwdrivers, etc. That way, as you get the tools clean, you can put them into a clean drawer to help the sorting and hopefully, one day, organization. Nice haul.
Good points. I'll be sorting all of this out soon. For now I just loaded up two other boxes and kept a lot of it in bins. I don't think I'll need to repaint any of the main boxes because they're decent enough so clean up should be easy.
@@floridarusticrepairs you do your thing , it was only a suggestion. Have a great one
I got a cool grey and red set that I painted up recently. Those are my favorites and the grey is easily painted with hammered paint. Do you happen to know what spray can color would be a match for the red on these 1980's boxes? @@michaelsurratt9593
@@floridarusticrepairs I watched that video and that was part of what gave me the idea. I don’t know what color was but I had a set, so long ago. Red with black drawers.
GOOD LORD!! I do NOT blame you! Just watching this video is giving me SENSORY OVERLOAD up here in South Carolina!!
AND, THANK YOU for your service to our country!
Also DUDEZILLA! It just going ON and ON!!!! What a SCORE!!!!!!
@@AndyM.There's a lot more in part 2 coming up soon. Really a once in a lifetime haul.
@@AndyM.Apologies for the confusion. To be clear, I was not in the Air Force. The Avalanche came from the estate of a friend of mine who passed and I just haven't had the heart to remove the decal.
Over the last couple years I've been posting videos with super deals (smaller...but still give away prices).
I realized what was actually happening. People were selling 600 and 800 thousand dollar homes that they purchased just a decade ago for 300......the box of tools I would buy had nearly no significance to them.
The Realtors would rush the cleaning out of the house....time is of the essence.
Exactly what happened here. Can't delay selling a house because of some "junk" in the garage. Sad, but at least in this case it all went to someone who appreciates it.
Send your brother Richard some of them He's always working on old cars and could probably use them
Will do. I gave him some prime selections from last summer and if he sees anything here he can use I'll get them to him.
The Dewalt grinder has a Die grinder wheel on it. It's used for surfacing concrete.
Thanks for the info! I think my guess was pretty good then. I thought it was for polishing concrete.
Chevy Avalanche a man with good taste.
Thanks! I've got that and my 4xx4 Suburban and they're both great.
Great find
Thanks! More to come soon.
its a body file (im a automotive refinisher ).. can also be used with lad .. the bosch probably still can get replacement parts and brushes if u know the model number
Thanks for the info! This person did a little of everything and had a lot of body work tools. If i recall correctly, the Bosch ran fine.
LOL I think I saw this same post on Market-Place. Glad to see someone picked it up. This is sometimes the BEST way to get good tools for cheap, you find someone who maybe had a death in the family and the kids are left to deal with all the tools and they just want to get rid of them and you can get a real nice deal.
I agree. Its a sad situation for the family involved but I ended up helping the guy out after and went and had a few beers with him the following weekend. I don't think I'll ever get a better deal than this.
@@floridarusticrepairs Yea it can be overwhelming on the family to figure out what to do with all the things left behind. I look at it as you both are helping each other out in a bad situation. i do not have the money to buy a lot of tools new or used so I have been looking for used tools online and came across that same post. Glad to see everything worked out for both of you guys.
Congratulations from your most recent subscriber - great haul. Love the quiet way you talk about the stuff - could watch all day - I probably have watched a full day over the past few weeks when I have been off word!!
Thanks for subscribing and watching! This really was a once in a lifetime haul.
Great find Matt, after it’s all said and done you can sell or barter more items and keep the best items for your collection.
Thanks! I've already been able to trade some of the power tools for building materials but for sure I'll be keeping some of this for my retirement fund. :)
Wow, where do I start? The only person with a collection like that is you! That set of tiny wrenches are ignition wrenches, and that is a huge set of them. That round chrome thing is a fuel pressure regulator for carburetors. Definitely worth keeping on hand for old vehicles. I have never seen an aluminum plumbing wrench. Maybe for electrical pipe? Was that a "Remove before flight" tag on the tool box key ring? Put that on your Camaro keys. Finally, I noticed you found some Rockford sockets. Were there any matching files?
Thanks! That Rockford joke almost got me. 😂 If there's anything you need like the fuel pressure regulator let me know.
Great haul! Should keep you busy for while!
Thanks! Three months later and I still haven't unpacked it all. Hopefully by summer.
@@floridarusticrepairs Your summer or ours😬?
lol! True. It''s already in the 80's here. @@clayauslewis4236
Nice find.
Thanks! Legend has it that I still haven't sorted through it all. :)
That’s small Porter Cable is very cool.
Thanks! Yes, I've got it on the list for some cleanup and maintenance soon.
Holly jackpot. I've been wanting to get one.
19:00 vixen file. For body work. Bernard parallel pliers. 42:00.
Nice haul
Thanks for the info! I think that file will be seen again in part 3.
Tip, if a box is super heavy pull out the drawers to move it
I think the problem was that I had actually forgotten to empty some of the drawers. :)
Your wife must be an angel! How did dinner go that night. Unbelievable haul!
Dinner was fine. :) I had to force myself to talk about something other than this haul but she knew I had to buy it. I just subscribed to your channel. Looks like we have something in common.
When the economy takes a giant poop I’ll be picking up some nice tools.
They're out there for cheap now but you've got to go to estate sales and answer marketplace ads. Sometimes you strike gold. Good luck!
All of those vice grip plyers are for body work and assembly
Yes, I heard he was restoring a Model A when he died. This guy's abilities were amazing.
I would love to have seen that model A, probably had some cool things in it
@@phillipmartin273 What the son told me was that he had put a 460 with headers into it and therefore had a problem with the steering column that he was trying to work through. If it's like the rest of the things in the house I would bet he let it go cheap.
Check to see what country those Irwin bits are made in most with those plastic cases I have seen are made in China
I didn't know that. Thanks! I have an Irwin set that is USA so I guess I was foolishly thinking they were still made here.
Sir, do you have an email? I am repainting a bottom door of a 76’ craftsman bottom box. It is a DARK GREY. I bought a can of charcoal gray, and it was way too light. Do you happen to know what color spray paint matches that really dark gray color in the 1970s craftsman toolboxes. It’s just a shade under black and I’ve not been able to find a can of spray paint that matches that color so now I’m stuck with one door, that is a different color than the rest thank you and keep these great videos coming! If you have the email, I’ll send you a picture of what I’m talking about. Thanks.
Hi, I think the Rustoleum spray paint color you're looking for is called Deep Slate. Amazon sells it if you can't find it locally. Good luck with the restoration! email is: floridarusticrepairs@gmail.com.
Wow that's an awesome haul . What do you do with the boxes and extra tools ? Is any of it for sale ?
If the boxes are beat up I restore them. if not, I use them for storage of all sorts of things like fasteners, parts and things. A lot of the tools i donate. I have traded some for help but I don't generally sell any of it. It's more like a hobby. I try to get people interested in working with their hands and so I will build sets out of a lot of this and donate it out. In the case of this haul I traded my friend Tyrone a lot of the power tools for his help in replacing an 8x8 beam on my carport. He traded the beam and his expertise and help.
SK will send you free rebuild kits for any broken ratchet you have. Very simple to rebuild! Great score!
Thanks, I did not know they did that. This one is actually missing the reversion claw part but I think that should be part of a rebuild kit.
air force united im retired Luftwaffe :) , go Bucs !
I recall a funny line from the Simpson's back when the History Channel had Historical shows. Homer is watching it and WW2 air combat is on screen and Homer says something like, "Ah, the Luftwaffe. The Dallas cowboys of the History Channel". :) I'm not actually air force. I got the truck from a friend's estate and I don't have the heart to remove his decal but since you're not the first to mention it, maybe I should?
What size drive was that broken sk round head? If it was 3/8” I might have a usa head kit for it
Thanks! That's very generous of you. Unfortunately it's a 1/2" drive. Model 42475.
Any of them tools for sale
I donate a lot of what i don't want. Sometimes I trade things out but I haven't begun to outright sell things. Is there something in particular you were interested in?
I've been looking for some Craftsman swivel sockets USA made also find me Craftsman tool collector.
Are you looking for a set or a certain size. I don't think I've got a set of those yet but I've been putting all of the ones I find in a drawer together. I'm close to having a set I think. Glad to meet a fellow vintage Craftsman fan. @@josuetoledo5474
Should help out an apprentice mechanic somewhere
Agreed. That's why I build sets out of the loose pieces.
@floridarusticrepairs that's awesome! If you mentioned that in your video I apologize. I didn't have time to watch to the end
Hey can I buy one of those boxes from you name your price
No
At the moment I have no plans to sell them but I will say, these show up on Marketplace every few weeks here in central Florida.
Foolish child if you had to go buy all new likely equal the price of the house.
Unfortunately the son wasn't into working with his hands so this all had little value to him.
