Proto Lite 3/4 drive.

Those Proto Lites are very cool ratchets.

Okay, here's some 3/4" ratchets and my longest, a 44" Blue Point 3/4" ratchet.  The third ratchet from the bottom in the drawer is a Bonney.  That one is incredible.  I still need to get a pic of my Cornwell 1" ratchet.

You have some really nice ratchets there. The Bonney is in really nice shape.

What is the part number on the Blue Point?

Another Proto with some bastard sockets I'm cobbling a set out of.  Picked up the box recently for a ten spot.

A really nice one to have. I thought that was going to be the Blue Point part number - that is the old Par-X number that Blue Point used after Par-X was phased out.

The handle is a Snappie piece.

Ah, I didn't know that was a Par X no.  I got the whole thing for $85.

Also have a couple of old Snappy 3/4 ratchet heads I'll have to get pics of.

You have quite a nice collection. Does the Cornwell have a removable handle? I really like the old Snap-on with the needle selector - couldn't read the date code though.

Thanks for posting!
