Re: My GMTK - It'll never really be finished! But here goes.

Post by d42jeep » Tue Nov 29, 2016 1:33 am

It's been a year and a half since I've updated this thread, and during that time I have been constantly changing and upgrading my keeper sets. I'm going to start with my hybrid GMTK upgrades and save the other sets for another day. It's hard to keep track of all the little changes so I will just post a bunch of pictures and a list of the items currently in the box. Please feel free to comment or criticize but I am definitely slowing down on the items that I want to upgrade further. My GMTK photos can be seen full size here in my GMTK photo album.

I like the way you have all the time frames covered (e.g., both early and mid-to-late feeler gages). Strong brand themes throughout the major subsets. All your singular highlight pieces are the desirable ones (e.g., U.S. ARMY stamped PAL knife) and all the seemingly routine pieces are the most verified choices (e.g., WISS V13 snips). I'd say you dotted all your i's, but IRWIN used all caps! I will say that you crossed all your tees - because your midget set not only has the sliding tee, it has the cross-bar for the ratchet! It's a terrific set, Don, that any serious collector would be proud of.

Everything looks fantastic, Don! I'm not sure what fine tuning you think you have left... :?:
I'm most envious of the U.S.A. marked Crescent needle nose! Gotta find me a pair of those. :mrgreen:

Don,
That is a great looking set! The large number of brand matching pieces is impressive and I'm sure it was no easy feat to complete. Like Jason, the USA stamped Crescent long nose pliers are on my wish list. Would you mind sharing a rough figure on how much money you have invested in this set? It might be helpful for guys looking to buy or sell a set.

Don,

Thanks so much for taking the time to post your updates. You, like so many others on this forum, do us all a great service by documenting and sharing your collections. It helps newcomers identify the real from the fake and inspires the rest of us.

Guys, thanks for the comments. Wing, every collector of WW2 tools owes a debt of gratitude to you for all your tireless research and sharing. You have changed the hobby from mostly guesswork to confirmed correct tools. Jason and Phil, you have both been very supportive both with advice and generous trading. Phil, when it comes to the cost of putting a set like this together it is very difficult to place a monetary value. The hours spent at garage and estate sales, flea markets and thrift stores are countless but for me very enjoyable and the reason I pursue the hobby. There are several items that are VERY difficult to find and often the Internet is the only answer. US Army marked knives, handle marked screwdrivers, QMC pry bars and ignition wrench sets with decent rolls are almost never going to be found at flea markets. It would be easier to find an honest politician than an intact Duro Chrome ignition screwdriver! I hope my wife doesn't read this but I would guess that to come close to duplicating this exact set would be in the neighborhood of $2800.00 to $3000.00. Your prices may vary! Now, onto the on board Jeep toolset!

Not too many changes to this set. It has a full set of no ISN Barcalo DOE wrenches along with Barcalo pliers and 8" adjustable wrench. The auto wrench is a recently upgraded 12" Moore. The big changes are the additions of the grease gun nozzle and the recently discovered Bristol wrench. The rare items are reproductions as I'm not interested in paying hundreds of dollars for a little stamped wrench that doesn't even work well for it's intended purpose! :D

Fantastic set Don,

All your hard work has paid off with this great looking set, really happy you found a FSN marked Walden box as well, you Jeep tool kit is also something to strive for.

Don;

May I suggest that you kindly move your GPW tool kits photos and fact sheets to a new thread under that, or a similar, name, because it then would be much easier for GPWs owners who want to assemble a tool kit for their 1/4 ton 4x4 Ford to find all your wonderful information here on the Gee. Personally, I'd never think to look for, or find, jeep tool kit information buried within a GMTK thread.
Happy Jeep Trails,

My GMTK & Jeep sets - They'll never really be finished!

Post by d42jeep » Thu Dec 01, 2016 11:14 pm

John, coming from you those comments are really appreciated when I consider the quality of your excellent toolsets. I recommend that anybody reading this thread check out your GMTK finds Down Under here.

viewtopic.php?f=48&t=244882&start=0

Fred, you make a good point. Rather than moving sections, perhaps I will change the heading of this thread to be more inclusive of the direction my collections have gone. Next, I will be showing the updates to my early (11/42) MVMTS. Here is a sneak preview.

Re: My Jeep & GMTK sets - They'll never really be finished!

Post by d42jeep » Sat Dec 03, 2016 5:01 am

My vision of this MVMTS is one that was put together perhaps right after Pearl Harbor with all the '38 to early '42 tools and then updated with the tools added in October of '42. Since my Jeep was made at the beginning of Nov '42, this set should look like it would have right at that point in time. The Snap-on 1-1/16" and 1-1/8" sockets are dated 1942 since they would have been added in October. I have tried to put the entire set together to reflect that time period. It doesn't have any of the tools that were added later and as much as possible all of the dated tools reflect the correct time period. It is a quite different set than my hybrid GMTK which should have all the tools from every version of the '38 to '45 sets.
The photos will show the earliest version (1938 to mid 1942), then the 10/42 set and finally my complete set with the tools included from both versions.
