Very nice looking set-up! Back when I worked the line for Dodge I had that in Snap-on Tools. Then I got "liberated" by some Jerk. Replacement value was $250,000... dumb a** me... no insurance... no more line work... service writer and about 5K in Craftsman. i8, have you ever checked out the replacement value of your set up? Probably 3X what you have stated. Also, that blue Matco is a very nice "office!"

I'm a bit scared too think about how much that is. Just thinking about the green one... probably $20k to replace it and it's contents. Guess I should look for some insurance.

It's amazing how it adds up and replacement costs. My broken back Snap-On ratchet was $14.00 when I purchased it back in the 70's. Amazingly, I still have it as not all was lost... is now well over $100.00 to buy new! Dang I love tools!

About 2500-3000. i8acobra, that blue tool box is amazing! Love how it doubles as a work bench too with a light.
