[QUOTE="ORVietVet, post: 27696, member: 9438"] With an inguinal hernia flaring up and as I get older I seem to be slowing down and ache more, I am planning on taking on less and less work and traveling more with my girl, Linda. I still have the desire to do the work but those final days are coming, likely within the next 2 years. I am putting this out there to make sense of what I am going to say next. When I stop, I stop and will pay someone else to do the work, including oil changes. At that point, I will be selling my tools. Both Snap on boxes and all tools in them. 1 floor jack and any related stands, ramps and tools that are outside the boxes. This set of tools is for a very hard core DIY'er, an existing shop tech or a guy/gal that wants to get in a career that A-I will not replace. The tools are 90% Snap On, Mac, Matco, SK, Craftsman USA, ICON, Blue Point, Gearwrench.......etc. They will not go cheap and will not be sold separately. Retail price is between $70k to $80k. Out the garage door is no where near that and any reasonable price will be accepted. Again, I am saying this now so that if someone is serious about this, they will have time to mull it over and also get funds together. I am 73 and my girl is 78. We want to travel. Why not. She is a retired American Airlines flight attendant, with close to 45 years at the company. She and I could fly for free. I like to drive more and she does too. Wouldn't bother me a bit to pass on while looking at the Majestic Beauty of Crater Lake, Oregon. That sight/place makes me go "WOW" every time I see it. [/QUOTE]
