    Nice score. I particularly like the "Radiator Heat Gauge"; very '50's terminology. Too bad the lens is broken. I broke the lens on my dirt track (low pressure) tire gauge once, and a friend of mine knew someone who fixed it for free. I guess it's pretty easy if you know your way around glass. Isn't there a member here whose signature is something like "You don't carve a wooden wrench just because you can and it 's lighter"? Well, here's his rebuttal. :D

    I could have used that radiator temp gauge yesterday. I have a lot of old spark plug gauges but haven't seen one like the AC one on the top of those two. That's a keeper.

    I think the KD pliers may be windshield wiper lifteroffeners...see if there's a vestige of rubber covering on the lower jaw. Lifts wiper hub off of shaft against the force of the blade leverage against the glass.
     
  6. Radiator temp gauge looks just like an old meat thermometer Mrs. LowKat uses.
