New Tool Heads
« on: July 27, 2026, 11:53:53 am »
Last year the executor from an estate in New York contacted me about purchasing a few Universals and a number of other Star parts.   We were able to come to a mutually agreeable arrangement and we completed the transaction.   A couple months ago that same executor contacted me and said they had found a couple more tool heads and offered them to me at a reasonable price.   When I received them, I was surprised to see that they were brand new tool heads still wrapped in the San Diego newspaper dated December of 1981.   I just want to show them as a point of reference to how they were shipped back then.

Forty-five years old and still in original packaging.

Not something you will find everyday.
