Thanks for the additional pics, Reiver....love those Liberators! Some cool cars at the show as well. Looks like a fun event.
There's a vintage aircraft restoration business here (
American Aero Services) and they also host events like that from time to time. Open house where you can see the projects they are working on plus they have a little museum. They always set up a donation table for the local animal shelter.

There's a name in some of the stuff, Rich and I will look into it. Suffice to say, it is fortunate I came along to try and maintain part of this man's "legacy". We have and have had machinists in our family so I always place value in tools and especially coming from a person's private "collection".
