Things are a bit easier if you realize that 7/16" and 11mm are virtually interchangeable as are 5/6" with 8mm, 5/8" with 16mm, 3/4" with 19mm and others. If you can't find the one you need, there may be an alternate.

And let's not forget 14mm and 9/16" - exact swap. Funny, My metric wrenching has primarily been toyotas, so I never got to experience most of these. Yes, some 8mm, but 10, 12, 14, no 15s or 16s, lots of 17s. And let's not rule out the adjustables and vice grips.

There it is! Funny story on myself, yesterday I went to one of my storage buildings to get a moulding for a customer. Turned on the lights but needed a bit more so used my phone, yep you got it got to my truck and had to go back, unlock the door, and go get my phone that was still shining brightly!
 
So after my dad passed in 99 I picked up my grandfathers toolbox. It was a wood box 3'x3'x5' he made. In it, was a lot of different tools. Taps, square nails, wrenches, and a few odd car parts.


One day around late 2000s I decided I needed a Model A. I picked up a 28 model a, site unseen. It was a chopped 4 banger with mech brakes. It was not well advertised. :). ...Well one of the things it needed was the gas cap. It was all jacked up with drill holes through the cap. (venting? ya no idea). The Odd thing was there as a very nice cap in the old toolbox. So was it meant to be? Did I get the cap first and then found the car for it?



if you don't understand how this story relates to the title. Well...



I Sold the car later, But it was a lot of fun for a while anyways. :)
 
I forgot what this thread is about, but every time "i look everywhere" and don't find what i'm looking for....my finds it for me....gotta love that gal.
 
I don't wear my prescription glasses very often, so when I found them the last time, I put them in a special place so I wouldn't lose them again. I am trying to remember now where that special place was. No, they are not on my head.:)
