The Roadside Toolbox

So we have a thread on vintage tool boxes already and it’s a damned good one. What we don’t have is a thread dedicated to toolboxes used for roadside repair kits. My biggest problem with these boxes is that I tend to get super cool 1940’s era boxes, fill them with what I need, and end up with something that weighs as much as damned Snap-On roll around chest.
