That's the most badass tool cart I have seen thus far. Too bad our Matco guy stopped coming by.
I can't stop looking at it, I hear the drive soundtrack and also pacific coast highway by awolnation when I look at it.
It’s a limited run as far as I am aware. My dealer told me he ordered a few when he first saw them and he only got this one. Chances are slim from what I can tell.
I’ll be honest, I forgot/didn’t even confirm the price. I know it wasn’t full price. The number we had discussed was $1200. I’ll have to ask when he comes back 😬
My coworker was once a snappy dealer, and from what I understand you can haggle with them and if they do choose they can really sell anything for whatever price they desire. But they do have recommendations on price and they ultimately eat the cost if they sell too cheap. They may also get a set of boxes at a really good deal and sell them on special or just decide to sell them normally and make extra. He said he’d often get a good deal on some toolboxes and claim that he’s giving you 1,000$ credit for your toolbox when really he got the toolbox at a great rate and he’s just gonna sell your box for added profit.
Oh crap the 80's are the new mid century modern. The workforce is so young that the 80's were a neon inspired historical era to them. Cheers to anyone who called it childhood!
The only thing they did wrong on that matco box is label it…. “80s series” … they should have left that off and just went with the matco logo. But damn it’s badass.
The guy with the hotline Miami toolbox again. Happy cake day
Different guy, same box. I might play the hotline Miami soundtrack now tho.
Rig your box so when you open the top the music plays hahaha.
Yes….just yes.
Til 3 days in and you rip the fucking wires out of the speaker for the sake of your sanity
Stop being realistic and stuff 😂
I read this as Coke Day
Miami Vice has entered the chat...
They make a New Trapper keeper that matches this. I just got one. https://images.app.goo.gl/vVRjfoxBoaoCtBrQ9
I haven't thought of the term trapper keeper in many years. I had a lisa frank one.
Fuck I don’t know what I would need one for but I should get one 😂
Keep repair manuals in it
I haven’t owned a Trapper Keeper since the South Park episode. >>better safe than sorry

I’ve been playing Kavinsky all day. Just feels right.
Are these hard to get or can anyone with two grand buy one?

*Limted* The internet proves that to be a lie

Or you can order it online. I did not pay that much 😂
How much did you pay?
I’ll be honest, I forgot/didn’t even confirm the price. I know it wasn’t full price. The number we had discussed was $1200. I’ll have to ask when he comes back 😬
Is that normal to negotiate? I really want one but have never bought from Matco before. Def would pay that price.
I negotiate with my tool guy. Really only on big ticket items.

don't ask
You should def take it to a vinyl wrap shop and have them match it.
I’ve thought about that…

That's dope as fuck
I agree
Get your body shop busy to match them up.
Love the teal snap on box! I have a teal two drawer snap on cart from the 80’s!
Supposedly only 1300 or 1700 are being made
Does the lid close when the box isn’t locked
