This was made from picture of the wrench, creating a cad file and sent to a 3D printer shop and printed out of stainless steel for ~$120 . All I know for certain is the hub cap end of the wrench fits and I have pressed pins into the spanner pin holes. I haven't a clue what the rest of the wrench is supposed to fit thus I haven't checked it for proper fitment. The wrench is now painted

I am not an early car expert but here is what the Encyclopedia has to say about this wrench.
It's more of a non company specific universal wrench.
Hopefully someone knows that the features actually fit.
I love the use of technology to solve a problem.
Being printed in metal it should be a functional tool.
If you just wanted a display item and not functional it could be printed in in plastic, body worked, and painted.
Plastic could look fine on display if that is the desire.
Old problem, New solution
