Went out for 2 short hunts last week and haven't had a chance to post yet. Didn't get much, but I love sharing and reading everything everyone else finds.

First is Tootsietoy car from the 50's/60's, and it's a Chicago Sudan. It's in great condition!

The second hunt I went out with DJamWolfe on Sunday. It was a short, rainy and muggy hunt. I got a musketball and some kind of cutting tool I believe. Anyone have an idea of what that is?

I don't recall ever seeing an alligator wrench - cool

The old Ford tootsie is in nice shape, looks like it pulled a trailer - might still be out there too!

It's a pretty cool old tool, and the handle was used for railroad spikes. I found a small spike near it also.

The car did have a trailer, but I believe it is plastic. Would take some luck to find that!

Here's the only interesting things I found on our digs.
Tootsie toy trailer, an old caster, $.12 and an old Trojan wrapper.
Glad to meet bot of you!

Love the Tootsie! :thumbsup: You could soak that wrench in apple cider vinegar to clean it up. Congrats!
