Tool box w/example pic

[wenthur]

I saw a picture of a "24 DB touring with a black box on the running board, Is this a tool box? If so does anyone have the dimension, and material it was made of. Also would like to know what came in the box. I would purchase one in good condition, if anyone has one;

If not I would manufacture one and collect the proper tools that belong in box.

Also would like to know if step plates were brass, and the correct size of the step plates. If any originals are available, I would like to purchase them. MIKE

Tool boxes were an accessory and in many sizes. The tools came in a roll. Tool boxes are readily available at most swap meets. A list of tools and pictures is in the Dodge handbook.

Step plates were an accessory and could be solid or have rubber inserts. They are availiable from several reproduction sources. The solid ones could be brass or aluminum and were usually plated for 1924. There were several styles so you need to measure your running board so you know how wide you want the step plate.

Have a nice day. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
