All kinds of goodies there, I like the pliers with the attached spanner, cool.

I noticed the waterpump pliers with the pin wrench, too.  I wonder if they were designed for a specific application?  And some parrothead pliers, in case you encounter a broken parrot or Jimmy Buffett fan.

But, now that you've got, by my count, three valve lifters for flathead engines, you need to buy an old flathead truck.  Ford V-8?  Studebaker (get an M-series truck, if you decide on that)?  Mack?

> you need to buy an old flathead truck

Or a lawn mower, the little stamped short ones are usually for small engines..

I like the water pump plieers with the packing nut hook wrench on the end also, first I have seen...

I see a pair of the original self adjust vise grips. Bet they slip.
I got a pair when they first came out. Worked great for a little while, then started to slip.
 I took them apart for some re-engineering and they work again.
 But they won't work forever.
