Vintage tools for a vintage truck
 

Borrowed some 40+ year old tools to work on my almost 50 year old truck. I hit up Dad for these, the timing light was a Christmas gift to him when I was knee high.

I still have some like that and use them often. I cant seem to find the diagnostic plug in in my vintage trucks. Life was a lot simpler in those days.

I still use the Sears timing light that my brother gave me, he bought it in 1967.
