WTB a few trunk toolkit tools

[RichenFamous]

Looking to compete my toolkit for my early e3. I don’t need concourse judge worthy, but need to be able to be cleaned up and fit the early foam.

After reading through the toolkit thread, I am searching for:

Open ended wrenches - all three
Box wrenches - 12/13 and 17/19
Wheel pin
Valve tool
Both pliers

Need shipping to Sacramento area.

Thanks in advance!

Here’s a pic of my kit:

try turning the big pliers over ...

Bad picture. I’ve tried multiple jaw settings and orientations and they do not fit the foam. Same with the short pliers.

open the wrench a couple of notches and try again ... that will allow the handles to touch each other.

I appreciate your input… Re-read post, then zoom in on this photo from HB Chris’ toolkit thread. There are differences in early and later tools. The slip joint pliers I have are from my e28. Not the same.
Done trying to prove I would like to buy early long handle pliers.

Yep, both pliers are of a later vintage. The 9” pliers are almost impossible to find and the early one is even harder. The small pliers should have a slight bend outwards at the end of the handle.

Look at the recent post by @CSteve he had some tools there

Thanks @HB Chris . I studied your thread for a few nights now before posting my WTB ad. Your thread has been invaluable and much appreciated. Cheers, Rich

Thanks for the heads up! Steve reached out and I replied. One piece at a time ala Johnny Cash.

Hey at least it’s cheaper than the vintage Ferrari set on BaT - that’s at $5k with two days left to go.

I'll have a look, have some spares.

Fyi also your wheel pin is not e3/e9 correct. The thick section should end with the same thick diameter. Yours is thinner at the end.

Ah, a missed detail! Thanks for the keen eye. Guess I’ll add that to the list. These early tools are hard to locate!
