Name that tool!

its obvious to me your old man worked on cars, and probably did some pretty in depth stuff, meaning he's likely got a bunch more foreign tools that you've not seen before.

dont be surprised if he gives you a bunch more old and unusual stuff. I or my good friend both have most of this kind of stuff, ALL of it between the two of us.

Agree with Bob, but I also think H can be used in combination with L to flare pipes such as fuel lines, brake lines, etc.

H looks too big for that, I was thinking it was a pulley tool. L is used for brake line in conjunction with a brake line flare tool (which is a much smaller version of H).

I also have one of K and have no clue what it is. i always thought that it was a specialty tool to spread something, but never figured it out

Yeah, my dad was a mechanic for roughly 40 years. Everything from forklifts to buses.

Thanks for the help guys. Anybody want any of this stuff? I don't think I'm every going to be in a position to do THAT much wrenching and my dad told me just to sell or toss anything I wouldn't use. However, the 1 1/4" - 1 3/4" combination wrenches are just too damn cool to get rid of.
