Pics of my new baby
 

I just wanted to show off my new box. I picked it up last weekend and couldn't be happier. Matco 7525 double bay....... hopefully it will be a loooooong time before I fill this one up :cheers:

Tool boxes are cool :cool: :cheers:

You have a beautiful baby, Jeffs99SS. Someday, when I have settled down I hope to have one of my own. Tear.

damn near idencal to mine mines just a 8525 (same size dont know the diffrence) and its air brushed I think its even the same color Best investement I have ever made
(filled it up real quick too)

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I looked at a lot of boxes, and in the end decided I like what Matco had to offer. I felt it was of equal quality (if not higher than) to the Snap On boxes that are out right now. It's 2 years old, and I was able to get it for about a third of what it retails for. I'm thinking it'll be a good investment also.

What does a box like that go for? I am thinking of investing in a new box soon. 20+ year old snap on has seen better days :(

I love my matco box I need to get some pics.

That box lists for about $5200 new. I personally couldn't justify spending that much money on it. If I was a mechanic who did this for a living I might feel differently. I bought it slightly used (it was built in 2003, used for 6 months, then sat in a garage) for a little less than 1/3 of the list price.

:hail: Great color, and sure it work as good as it looks! :)

nice looking box - good buy. i bought my snap on top and bottom used for 3500 and love it. i do it for a living though and it is now too small, and i am thinking of getting a tripe bay matco with a hutch and phone booths on the sides. so if anyone is interested i might be posting soon a thread to sell my toolbox.. but good purchase man you'll love it.

You made the right choice, Matco boxes are the BEST!!!

Great looking box. Now get a hose reel. :P

Yeah, a hose reel is next on the list for the garage

Very nice :cheers:

Nice box man, my buddy just dropped the loot for the Limited edition Ed "Big Daddy" Roth Rat Fink box. It is one sick lookin box.

congrats!

wachutalkinbout willis....you SHOULD fill it up quick ;)

matco boxs are ok i dont like there locking system i will take my snap on box over a matco box anyday

ps it was 10k new 2 years ago

I think you should donate all your old stuff to me!! haha j/k Jeff...that box is pretty sick...and I hope it takes you a long time to fill, otherwise I'm gonna say you need to go to tools anonymous, that thing is HUGE!

Actually that box is small. My Snap-on box has one more set of drawers on the right side than that box and it is almost full. The sad part is that I'm not even out of school yet and I'm thinking about getting a top chest for it.
Tool boxes fill up faster than you think especially with a $5,500 Mac Tools card.
