A friend of mine bought this and I thought it was very cool. It is a machinist chest that belonged to a worker at the Stinson factory who made L-5's. Thats all the information that came with it. Too bad all of the tools were gone.

The buddy thought I would like to buy it for $350, but I passed. Now if it had a Lockheed, Boeing or Beechcraft decal then maybe...

Check out the WARNING decal that must have been used on the Stinson somewhere that he put on his box. Gotta love the Stinson, flying Jeep decal too!

Maybe you all L-5 junkies can set up your tool box and use this as a reference for authenticity!

Taigh,
Can you get a good close-up of the Stinson Flying Jeep logo?
