    Spare Parts Box, Chorehorse Charging Set

    One of the many things that my late father purchased from the local government surplus store post WW2 was this small tool box. It wasn't bought as a collectable, but just as a useful small metal box. It was put to good use as something to store small abrasive wheels and rotary wire brushes in and eventually it passed to me. I continued to use it for the same purpose until 20 years or so ago when I had too much that I wanted to fit in it.

    I have always been fascinated by the label inside with the list of contents and tried to imagine what vehicle or equipment it was intended for.

    It didn't quite make sense being a spare parts box for a vehicle as one of the contents is a cylinder head gasket and it would have to be a very small vehicle/engine for the gasket to fit in the box. After looking online I believe that I've identified it as the spare parts box for the Chorehorse Charging Set.
