I have 2 tire pumps. The first one I found was pretty rough and eventually found a better condition one that I bought a replacement hose kit for. The rough one has nice markings on the bottom,US QMC 305592 WALKER MFG. CO. 19 RACINE,WIS U.S.A while the nicer pump has US ORD and only a makers mark on it. Would this be post war production or still proper for WWII?

I have had in my collection a 1945 dated jeep tool roll that came in handy when I started to put together this tool kit. A little greasy but ads character!
I don't know if there were very many different variations of horsecocks for the WWII jeep. This is a nice condition one I found and hope it will be proper for the jeep tool kit? I also found reproduction Maintenance and Parts list manuals for display.

Some reproduction tools I bought to add to the tool kit are the Wrench-fluted socket head screw, Wrench-hydraulic brake bleeder screw, Wrench-drain plug and the Puller-wheel hub.

I lucked out last summer stopping at a roadside antique yard and in one of the semi trailers was a pile of tire chains. I picked out a couple matching chains that looked like they would fit the jeep and when I got home, they went on perfectly! I now need to find a reproduction tire chain bag to display with the chains once my tool kit is complete.

So that is what I have collected for my tool kit. If I can get help picking out the proper tools to keep,I will dispose of the rest of my spares. I will still need to find the #28D open end wrench and a reproduction tire chain bag. If anybody has these items surplus to their needs,I would be interested. The only one that has repro tire chain bags in stock is Peter DeBella jeep parts but the $35.00 US shipping to send a $30.00 US bag was more than I was willing to pay! I had one in my hands at the last MVPA convention but didn't think I would ever find a set of chains so didn't buy it! Oh well,there's more out there!
Thanks for any help the members can give me.
