When I was 18 I bought a set of tools and it came with a massive four drawer toolbox that was much too big for carrying in my Pinto. So, I traded it to my dad for his toolbox.<br /><br />It was red and a few yrs ago, it was starting to show its age and rusting a bit, so I painted it with some black Rustoleum I had. That was much too dark, so I spritzed some White on it in random over-spray type spurts.<br /><br />It's okay now and I preserved the box before it got too far gone. But, when I look at it, I still see the bright red toolbox of my childhood. <br /><br />Imagine my chidren's confusion when I tell them to get something out of the red toolbox and they go to the big craftsman four drawer unit that I now have back from Dad and I say, "No, not that red one, the other one" as I point to the black and white box...brigantinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12209370917771947352noreply@blogger.com
