Reproduction 340/s Tool Boxes

Post by JoeRainville »

Hi Guys,

I am going to bring Lee Fredrickson my only good 340/s tool box to repop. This is the plastic one that is under the back of the seat. I need at least 2 for myself, but I am planning a larger batch.

These will be pretty easy to ship, especially compared to the Dator hoods.

Please let me know if you are interested in one. They should be done before HayDays, maybe earlier if I can talk Lee into it. Final price to be determained, but they should be very reasonable.

Thank you,
-Joe Rainville

Tool Box Update:

The pattern was dropped off at Lee's, and I hope to have a batch made for summer delivery. I will keep you all posted on price and delivery.

Thanks!

Hi Guys,

UPDATE: I will be recieving the first four 340/s tool boxes this week. Expected cost are going to be about $60.00 each, plus act. shipping.

I will get hold of you guys in order to verify that you want one at that price. As of right now, I am holding one for Lindner, Rich, Craig and Don.

Anyone else interested, please contact me so I can get in my next order. Will post pic's as soon as the first ones arrive.

Hi Guys,

These are pic's of the reproduction tool boxes next to the original one I sent out to have the mold made from. They are much stronger than the original, and gelcoated black. The first four are spoken for.

I am taking orders for my next order, expected to be picked up from Lee at Hay Days. $60.00 plus actual shipping or no shipping charge if I drop them off on my trip. Asking for a $20.00 deposit to place orders.

Thank you,
-Joe Rainville
