I know what you;re saying, and when I find someone who would look after it as I have I'll probably give it to them.
The person who offered to buy it is a female friend, not that close, who's told me more than once how her adult sons "borrow" her gear and either return it damaged or don't return it all.

Fair enough too.

I have a tool kit full of stuff I no longer use, AF/Whitworth spanners and sockets literally have surface rust on them, all my old electronic tools like exhaust analysers, dwell meters etc I gave to a mate who has an early VW he drives daily. What I am going to do with the non metric tools beats me and the metric ones rarely get used these days since we stopped racing three years ago. Some of this stuff is old type Sidchrome which I know I could sell but can't bring myself to do it. My son is a master tech with Mazda and his tool box is worth many times mine and he will never use what I have got which is a shame. Such is life.
