Guest Geo1931 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 that would be a 1931 DH6 rumble seat coupe , American version...bought new in PA in 1931. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Here are some tools from my DH6....as far as I know, they are original. Some others may correct me if I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete K. Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 John, I think those are the correct tools for the DH6, with exception of the tool bag. I think it's an older reproduction made for a Ford model A. I have one just like it. If you notice it's made from the long/short Cobra grain rubberized fabric. The same fabric Ford used on his tops. He used the trimmings from the upholstery shop to make up the tool bags. Thanks for your posting!---Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original may have been a canvas-like material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geo1931 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 the tool roll material looks the same as the seat covers on the rumble seat cushions of my car...which are original.at least it looks like both materials have aged the same and now have the same funny texture of 80 year old vinyl.

Guest 1930 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Tool roll would have been made originally from a material similar if not called duckcloth ( I do not know if that is the correct spelling ) A different jack than what is shown above would have been original as well as of course the handle, other than missing some of the tools and the addition of that cast wrench off the top of my head everything else looks to be in order.
