New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I went to Mom-n-laws house yesterday to help clean out my FiL's garage. He passed about two years ago, and its time for a garage sale to get rid of some old clutter.

I came across this small tool box that my bro-n-law decided I should have. Its in great condition, so I was pleased to add it to my collection. I am curious about the logo on it. I haven't been able to locate any names, just this cool looking logo on the lid.

Any idea what it is?

I've seen it before, but I don't know...

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I don't know either but it is very cool!

The guys in the tool forum sure would drool! :lol:

I'veseen it also but cannot remember who the LOGO belongs to.I don't even remember if it's a tool co. maybe a speed equipment co?

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

that was a speed shop logo back in the 60's,don't remember the speed shops name but i remember seeing that logo back then.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

That is neat..

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I did a complete search of the box and there is NO writing on it. Nothing at all, not even a made in xxxx stamp. The only thing i did determine is it was bought at Globe.

Reminds me of the logo Dodge used on some of their cars in the early 70's

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I agree!

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I was thinking "Roadrunner"
What was the Thrush logo way back?
It's familiar to me too,just don't remember.

That's kinda what I'm remembering

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

Ive always been pretty good with this kind of mystery, but this one has me stumped. Neither of these boxes looks familiar to me at all.

Course now its gonna drive me nuts, heh, I hope someone comes up with the answer soon.

My dad had that exact logo on something
when I was a kid. I also remember seeing it at shows. I Googled for half and hour and came up with nothing.

Here is another one of the roadrunner. The shape of the box is the same.

Here is one like yours. It was for sale on a vintage website. It didn't say what it was, but it did say there was a tray in it.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

The Roadrunner appears to be the same box. It's possible they were taking advantage of the Mopar popularity of the late 60. My logo does resemble the Superbee logo for sure.

It does have a tray inside with dividers. I will post pics of that later.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

Heres a pic of the tray and inside the box. It looks like brand new inside.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I've seen it and I know it was a long time back.I've racked my brain trying to remember where.I finally came up with a name but I'm not sure if that's where I saw it.Western Auto.I didn't spot it in a quick search though.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I had a Western Auto tool box and tools when I was a kid in the 60's.
Their tool brand name was Westline.
It was a very similar red box,but I don't remember anything printed on it.
I still have most of the sockets and wrenches.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

We had a Western Auto in the town where I grew up and I don't remember that logo at all.
I predict this will be the new "is the safe open" thread. :lol:

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I thought of Western Auto when I first saw it, but it did not come from there. I was able to read the remains of the price tag to the right of the handle. It was bought at a Globe department store. They closed their last store in the early 80's so I know its circa late 70's which makes it a perfect accessory for my 77.

I posted a link to this thread over on the Garage Journal (sister site of the HAMB and lots of tool and tool box info there.) and basically getting the same response as here ... Yeah we've seen em, just not sure where they come from.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I found this thread on the HAMB and posted there "HAMB "Vintage" Tool Box Club" Havent got much help, but its a cool thread to scroll through.

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

Wow nice toolbox... You inspired me to look for one and it didn't take long. I found the same one and I still do not know who makes these either. But it is way cool. Thanks for sharing N2TRUX

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

WOW! Looks like you found one in mint condition too. What search criteria did you use to locate it?

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

I found it on a site called Etsy. It is a network of people that sell all kinds of merchandise. Yes I cant wait to get it..

Re: New tool box. Anyone know this logo?
 

Well this is what was found over on the Garage Journal....
