I’ve had it at my Chickasha booth several times. A lot of theories
Theories but know positive ID’s

Re: Anybody Know What This Is
I can see that!
A lot of people thought it was a speedometer cable/head/swivel tool.
I give it a try and see how it works.
thanks

Not a valve spring compressor - it's an early Ford speedometer cable end wrench.

Re: Anybody Know What This Is
It is not a speedometer swivel tool. It appears to me to be a valve spring compression tool. Here is a photo of the swivel tool..similiar but not the same. Russ Furstnow

Re: Anybody Know What This Is
What do I know ? I thought I'd seen that shape before ! A ruler for scale might have helped ?

Re: Anybody Know What This Is
Here's a similar lift, dual ends. The Ford valve end is noted. Found on the web.

Re: Anybody Know What This Is
Steve, Check out second picture with the ruler, it shows the tool to be about 3.5 inches. I don't know what tool is used for.

I may be way off base here, but I think that may be a tool for FORD watermeters. They use the block letters like that. JMHO Dave
