I dont have a picture of just my toolbox, but you can see it in this picture.

Here's my lil thang. 7 feet tall, almost 10 feet long. Tunes in the side cabinet.

I could show you what's in it, but I'd have to systematically hunt each and every one of you down ,and keel you!!

BTW, this box is 10 years old this year.

Yeah its actually a firebird that has been highly modified. It is LS1 powered and has the cleanest fuel injection wiring ive ever seen. Here are a few more pics, but i dont have many.





I cant post a link to our website being that we arn't a sponsor on here. The name of the shop is RPM located in Pittsburgh, PA.

the **** we build looks badass while haulin ***. Most of our cars are BBC equiped, just this one is a little different. I guess I cant even say BBC, almost all of them are 502 ramjet or 572 crate engines.

I dont know if I can do this but if you google rpm pgh you might find us in there. We have a parent company called prorides. If you are a regular recipient of summit racing you have seen the bright green starliner that was completed at our shop. We also built a blue 41 ****** that was on summits homepage for a long time.

The girlfriend got me the box for Christmas, which is the first "real" box I ever had. Before this one I only had the molded plastic box from the kit I had, aka I had no room for expansion. Now that I have a decent box I am in need of tools (especially screwdrivers which have all seemed to disappear). Anyway on with the pics!!

SnapOn has a nice set of screwdrivers that are pricey of course, but for a more reasonably priced alternative, check out the Craftsman professional line, they have a 6 or 7 piece set that's very nice. I have their set as well as a few SnapOn sets, and the Craftsman set gets the job done just fine.
