Saw this on Facebook market place and immediately thought of you Baz.
.I can see you cruising this playing the theme song to the Saint.

Ha - thanks, Byron. But I'm more of a wagon man when it comes to Volvos. Those P1800's are very cool cars though for sure!

That was car #2 I wanted as a kid while roaming the streets in the wee hours delivering papers. #1 was a Triumph TR6 in British racing green.

They still call those chipping hammers? We sold those when I worked at a local equipment rental company. Very popular!

We almost hit 90 today. Got 4 more months of it. Stay hydrated!

Thanks Baz!!

I’m sure that is still what they are called. I’ve heard “demolition hammers” too. Either way, they are dang handy tools to have. We have this stuff they call “Placerite”, it lurks below the top several inches of soil and is bloody harder than concrete. I’m sure some geologist will be able to tell me what the scientific name is. All I know it is a nightmare to chip into. Years ago, they guy helping me install a 12” steel corrugated pipe cracked the boom on the backhoe while using the monster chipping attachment.

Remember, stay calm and hydrate on. Keep those fluids going in while working in the high humid temps. Heat exhaustion/stroke is no fun.

Probably originally for IBM punchcards; Built like a battleship (weighs well over 100 lbs according to my internal scale) and all the drawers work great and have full extension. Free is a good price but I might give it a good wirewheel and a rattlecan and make it nicer before I fill it up with crap. So, what's my labor worth for a project I didn't have before?

Nice score H. Oberst!

Got a similar product myself back in 2017.

Same weight as yours - Iowa class battleship!

Mine was being used to house all kinds of fasteners, so I got all those as well. I think I paid around $20.

It sat on a little frame made of 2x4's....just to keep it off the floor.

Have fun with your rattlecan!

Seems a bit much. But I don’t keep up with prices.

[WPOZZZ]

I'm feeling like Baz today. Been working at my other house prepping for my return there. Come back to the town house and these were on the driveway next door.

[Baz]

Nice score, Bryan!

Varmint - $18K for the tub - and very important - you get the VIN. That will attract some buyers in today's market, as crazy as it may sound.

BTW, I paid FAR less than that for my '64 in good running condition with a recently rebuilt engine - but that was back in '05.

==========

Today's Baz score.....surprise....another table! Not in perfect condition - some peelage of paint. Easy fix. I like the slotted top...good for drainage!

Wow - great score!

Quick question - how do you know they are diamonds and it's 14K gold? Did you take it somewhere to be appraised? If so, curious what value was assigned.
