Thanks thats very kind of you.
The things he needs
Any tin Britool boxes or the holy grail is a Britool tool chest with draws.
Any 3/8, 1/4 or 9/32 drive sets or bits of.
Catalogues or scans of them showing the range.
Some spanners he already has a few and never intended to collect them but has now started to collect them, they are much easier than sockets!
Here is one of his prized sets its the biggest they ever made as far as we can see, missing two small sockets, one owner for the last 50 odd years

The best condition set still with the price on the lid, very little use.
