Honestly I'm not sure. I picked it up a while back but haven't spent much time researching what should be in it.

Since I can see a CV symbol on one of the pieces I'm going to say it'd have to be an older piece. Maybe AA would have an example to at least let you know what that era rat looked like. Though if you stuck an early 50's Bonney rat in there it would look bad.

hick, excellent job on configuring that Challenger box, looks like a real useful set.

slip knot, super nice sets, really digging the Williams stuff, especially the first set. Do you believe the ratchet to be part of this set originally? Is this M310 set 9/32” drive?
Thanks.
Btw I thought about it and figured the 8pt's probably wouldn't see any use, so I replaced them with Craftsman 16pt equivants I had.

Hey Slip Knot, your Williams sets are mega awesome! The best I’ve seen. The 1/4 looks like it it came right out of the factory.

Might as well post my garage 1/4" set.


It's fairly basic, with a ratchet, 3" extension, mini spinner handle, bit adapter, 4 bits, Craftsman ignition wrenches 5/32-7/16, and standard sockets from 5-32 to 1/2 with 16pt 9/32 5/16 3/8 and 1/2.

It already came in handy a few times, and overall I like it as a good basic set.
I wish I the wrenches had included a 1/2 but I can probably live without one being in this kit.

That's an awesome minty Bonny set there, and that looks like an excellent quality sliding T.

I’m pretty sure it was’nt opened up until I got my little grubby sausage fingers in it... >:D

Anybody know if the MSN number on the parts list is representative of this set being produced for the military?

Holy smokes - I almost fell off my chair seeing that Bonney set!

Those packing gland and king valve sockets are not easy to come by. NOS in a complete set is unheard of! Wow!

Here's a pic out of my 1986 catalog (basically unchanged since 1967) of the basic 20 piece reefer set. Your ratchet wrench looks different, though. But it should give you an idea of what came in that set.

That's really interesting, looks like this set was produced for quite a while. Thanks for the catalog pic!

U R Welcome.

Being the cardboard box it came in says Triangle Tools - and if the sockets have a little triangle under the "Y" in Bonney - means it is post-1967.

Those OTC sockets and BB look a lot like Wright's
