Hi Sherman, first off, welcome to Tool Talk. Secondly, you’re going to have to post some pictures and descriptions. The worst thing about those drills is shipping them. Where are you located?

posts are funny,   small ones in common names are easy to sell but dont bring much

Large ones and hard to find brands are valuable, but hard to sell

as Mike says shipping is tough on these

welcome to Papaws.   there are a lot of very knowledgeable folks here who can possibly help you with those, but as was said, pictures.   Try to limit the size or number you post at one time.
