If anyone has an original tool set for the 47-55 it would be great to get
pictures to post on my web site.  This would be a big help to those of us
who don't know how to recognize them at swap meets. Any original-tool-owning
photographers out there?

Does anyone know if the truck tool kit is available from any of the vendors?
Never seen it in a catalog.
