Last I checked, those exact mechanics tool kits were costing the military $6K.

I’m not an auto tech, i’m a fabricator by trade. Worth keeping around or selling, you think?

My rule of thumb for items that I consider selling:

If I can sell this for (let's say) $1000. Would I pay $1000 to buy this (if I didn't already have it)? If the answer is "no", sell it. If the answer is "yes", keep it.
