Leather was from eBay. However wouldn't recommend it as it was very difficult to do the a and c pillars. Originally used nusuede for the headlining. But eventually took it all off and got the whole lot flocked. There's an explanation further up the page for removal of pillars and headlining

New Tool Kit
So I felt it about time I stepped up my game with regards to my toolbox and tool collection.
I've been buying a few tools here and there over the last 4 years. But I thought I'd complete what I need.
So I bought this box a few years ago for £25
It was red and the paint wasn't the best. So I resprayed it black and recently sold it for £300
Before selling that. I bought this off eBay for £360 as a bit of an impulse
When I arrived to collect it. He also had the top chest. So I purchased both the roll cab and the top chest as well as loads of Snap On tools for £1000
I cleaned the box up and it looked like this
I decided that the tools I bought with the box didn't really go with my other tools.
I then sold them and a few other old tools for £1350.
I then also decided that the tool box I bought wasn't appropriate for me as it was an older model and was on slides rather than ball bearings. So i sold that box for £950
I then bought this beauty for £1000. Excellent condition and with ball bearing slides. With the retro ltd edition graphics. Also a free Snap On side shelf.
So this is as she stands now. The missing tools are on order.
Top Chest
Roll Cab
And by far my favourite
So of course I expect a lot of you to think what a ridiculous amount to spend. But there will be a few who will appreciate this.
A £1000 toolbox, £1550 of tools & £450 of foam actually cost me £1400.
This is a box for life and the tools all have lifetime warranty.
