What are these tools?
I've had these in the shop for years. They're from when my grandpa built it and owned the property. Anyone know what these are for?

Re: What are these tools?
the tool on the right is a valve spring compressor. Other tools may be used for removing valve spring caps and half moon keepers, I think !

Re: What are these tools?
The tool on the left is a door/window handle removing tool, the one in the middle is a spark plug wire/boot remover, and the one on the right is a spring compressing tool, used for compressing the spring in a door hinge. Can also be used to compress other springs.

The one on the left resembles a bull nose lead, only smaller. Probably what a 67-72 owners wife used to control their husbands in the obsession.
