Looks like most are V8 tools.

The top wrench is probably V8 from thirties, especially if it is marked 'made in USA'.
The next down is spk & headnut wrench from the forties., then below that is one for a Model 40 which was used 1933 to '37.
The bottom adjst. wrench is either for a Fordson tractor or the last type one supplied in late '40's for cars after which most tool items were not supplied & you had to buy them .

Vermin would proudly display them in his carpeted tool compartment under his seat! How much $$? Bill W.

I think the top one could be T or A and the lower one T before '26 when the square end began.

Ford USA stamping did not start to appear on tool items until after 1931'.
Early V8 tools often had ''40 , 81A or 01''.... [ '33 to '37; '38 & '39; post 1940...].
In the Model T era & for 1928 Ford script [ no USA] was stamped but then script was removed until late '31 when all the Ford USA & Made in Canada items start.
For Model A tools, finding the correct ones with only suppliers markings, no Ford script, is the tricky bit.
