Can anyone ID these tools. There is no Ford logo on them.
They were in a box of wrenches that I purchased.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
I can't speak to the top one, but the bottom is a pair of upholstery pliers.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
The top one may be an exhaust flange nut wrench.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
I guess I should have added some dimensions. The top tool is only about 4.5" long and the opening
is about 1 3/8". It might not even be for a car. I have attached a cropped version to show the letters and part number.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
The bottom tool is a horse shoe nail set. After the nails are driven through the hoof and are sticking out, the nail is cut off and those pliers bend the remainder of the nail over, then the hammer part finishes setting the nail end in the hoof.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
Hey Bill,
I have a friend that does just that so I think I will get a hold of him to see if
he is interested in the tool. Thanks for the info.

It is a common tool called a Cobblers Plier for making shoes.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
Could the first one be a wheel hub spanner? It looks like it says Continental 25254C, maybe Continental Tyres?

Re: Strange Looking Tools
There is a Continental Tire plant right here in Barnesville.
I will check with them to see if any one can ID it.
Thanks,
Bill

Re: Strange Looking Tools
Continental also makes aircraft engines although I can't guess what that wrench would fit.

Re: Strange Looking Tools
It looks like this thread has come to an end and had nothing to do with a Model T.
I sent a photo of the first tool to the local Continental Tire Plant and they contacted an older employee
who confirmed it is a cousin of the the tool in the photo I added. It was a specialty tool used in tight spots and
"around corners". Thanks for the input.
