I need some help with a CRAZY Thorsen based project.

I suck with Google and could not find anything,  did Thorsen ever manufacturer ignition wrenches ?


Because I am an idiot I decided it would be fun to make a Thorsen version of the rare Blackhawk nuggies set.



If you can't get the Blackhawk 24991 the next best thing is the Thorsen 77m or WRIGHT 2400.
I've already got a Thorsen set to add onto so that's what I went with.
The plan is to strip and re- repaint this Thorsen box, maybe black and red like the nuggies box.

I already have the proper Thorsen 18M flex handle on the way, I just need the wrenches if they even made 'em ( these are TRW, Bonney made I think ), extension,  universal,  and T bar for the flex handle.
I don't know if the T bar was even marked, so I can probably substitute about anything for that.

This should be a fun set to put together if it's doable.

If I had waited on the 18m flex handle there are a few incomplete sets on Ebay for reasonable prices, but I don't want a 3rd thorsen flex handle.
That would get me about everything else I'd need aside from ignition wrenches.

I've got some Thorsen sets going. Not really pursuing the sockets as I have enough of others for use, but finding the extensions and accessories has been fun. Can't say I've seen the T-bar for the breaker bar. One away from completing my metric combo set.

A good thing about Thorsen is alot of times they fly under the radar with most people and are really solid tools.

If you guys would disclose drive sizes and socket sizes some of us hoarders collectors may have what you are looking for.

1/4" here for my set.

Have I ever seen a Thorsen ignition set, No!  However, I have a Thorsen-Allied ignition set made in Taiwan.  On the pouch it says Thorsen-Allied on the left side (very small) and lower on the right it says imported by Thorsen.  None of the wrenches are marked with a maker, but do say Taiwan.  As you can see, they are in good condition and I figure they are about 40 years old or so.

I'm trying to complete a set of Thorsen Middle Period (1950-1970, according to AA) combo wrenches in metric. They have the "MFD USA" stamp on them. All I lack is the 16mm, number 1016.

Alright well thanks for the info, that's what I feared.
It looks like I may have to go a different route with this set or stick with an unmatched wrench set.
