She asked if you have the model number for the box? Said it is on the back of the box. Said she will help.

Mike, that tool box you have on the right the red double stacked snap on box, I had a box just like that at one time. I bought it used when I was getting into the business, the top part was in great shape but the bottom part was VERY rusty IDK what it had been though before I got it. Eventually replace the lower part with a larger used Cornwell unit that was also well worn, and put the snap on upper on it. The Cornwell had a terrible draw layout and I just couldn't fit anything in it. Eventually I spotted a craftsman upper and lower box on a tool truck the guy had taken as a trade. I got it for a song since it wasn't one of the truck brands. He gave me a small amount for the Cornwell lower and I took may Snap-on upper to the farm where it still resides on the work bench. I'm still running that Craftsman box at work. It's now way beyond any kind of normal "worn out", but I don't want to reinvest in the business. I kind of went down a rabbit hole there and my point was suppose to be that the red box took me back to another, better time in auto repair.

I've got that same bottom box, got it cheap from the Mac dealer when he took it in on trade. I never have come across the top chest yet.

IF memory serves me I think I bought the Snap-on box I use to have at a pawn shop. The Cornwell bottom I had I think was a trade in, off a tool truck. I know the craftsman was. I've joked that my craftsman is in such bad shape that when I leave the shop I'll just pack my tools in cardboard boxes and abandon the craftsman there lol. I wouldn't really do that.

Must have been a popular model. I have the same red bottom box. Guy owed me $100 and didn’t have the cash. Got that box in the early 90s and thought it was pretty old then. Very sturdy.

Ya, I was going to say in the 90's those boxes were a dime a dozen it seemed I saw them for sale for cheap all the time IDK what I paid for mine, it's been to long but it came loaded with tool, some stuff was for the assembly of metal buildings.

Must have been. I bought mine when I worked at the shop. A coworker had the same box too, except he had the top chest. He bought his new, in the early 90's I think.

I haven't ordered any 8-167 in awhile. Took months to get ball bearing slides in last year. You have to understand that we can't continue to produce slides for a 30 plus year old toolbox forever. But if you call customer care they will take care of you.
