Anybody flea marketing for one should make a note of the sizes because that wrench comes in two different size combinations. I'd hate to see someone get all excited and buy one only to find it didn't fit. �:-?

Sounds right...everything's on eBay!

The wife and I frequent antique shows/fairs...there's usually someone with a booth full of tools, will keep an eye open there too. Chances are I've seen 2 or 3 and passed them by not knowing that I needed one. �:(

That won't happen again! �

Thanks,

JB,
These wrenches pop up on Ebay and others sites on occasion.  I believe Cornwell, Snap On and one other manufacturer were the primary suppliers.  

I got lucky.  I showed a picture of this wrench to a guy at work.  He is kind of a tool nut.  He proclaimed that he had one.  I didn't believe him.  He brought it in the next day.  I bought it withing 20 seconds of seeing it.

It is a great tool, but after seeing it, with some average metal working skills, a similar and effective tool could be made dirt cheap.

Unobtainium...Great word.  That wrench, along with a modified 3/4" box wrench have made adjusting my brakes a freakin' joy.  I almost can't wait till the next adjustment is due.

Is that one of the unobtainium tools listed in the Willys service manual special tools list?

WOW...that is a great tool.  It is on my list, I must call Walcks, I have never seen one before.  Beats the heck out of an adjustable.
