>>I picked up a tool box for a GP while salvaging other parts.
>>
>> Inside the top lid is a "pocket"  about 9"x3.5"x3/8".  I was wondering if 
>> anyone might know what this pocket is for?  I would think it was designed 
>> to hold paper goods, such as notes, or  . . . . .   Any ideas?
>>
>> The box is in perfect condition except for a rusted out bottom, mostly 
>> thin tin with cracks on the bottom.  Interestingly, the hinges work 
>> perfectly!! Not sure how to restore this, the metal is too thin and 
>> brittle on the bottom.
>>
>> Also there is a 1/8" hole on the lid, exactly where a knob would be 
>> placed. Any ideas of what kind of knob I should install?
>>
>> I plan to have the 1930 GP on display at the JD Expo in Washington state 
>> this month.  Certainly not a show winner but lots of fun to play with
>>
>> Thanks,  Kreig
