I don't remember my dad ever working on much of my projects. He was not a "car guy" and cars were just appliances. His dad never learned to drive. They had cars, but grandma drove them and he was as hopeless as a 8 year old girl when it came to working on a car. Dad was gone TDY for 3 months at a time, and worked long hours when he was around.
My old box of grandpa's tools had some nice planes, draw knives and other woodworking tools that he likely got from his dad. I gave all of those to my brother, as he worked at a mill work for years. He fixed them up and made them look like new.
I do have one weird looking metric wrench that has Ford's logo cast into it. It must have been part of a tool kit that came with some old car. It too just hangs on the wall as a decorative piece.
