ebay Cox and others various wrenches, someone here perhaps?
Ok, there's a story here.
An ebay sale from one of my favorite listers, Navydad. A group of wrenches BIN for $29.00. I want them (for a reason) but thought "I'll sleep on it." Ya snooze ya lose. Sure enough when I checked the next morning there was a single bid which turns off the buy it now option. So, I made my usual one-time proxy bid in excess of the BIN price.
Anyhow, the other bidder bid it up to $27.00. I won them for $28.00, Saved a whole buck. I have reason to think the other bidder may be a forum member, perhaps not, most here like me are up to our ears in Cox wrenches. But if so and there is a particular whench that you need from the group, let me know.
I wanted them for two reasons, the wrench top row third from right I do not have. I think it's for a Cox .09 or .15?????????? The other reason, seems Yabby is short on Cox wrenches, like none. So I wanted to send him some. So Yabby, if you see this PM me your address otherwise I will get in touch with you.

Goodaye Bob! Thank you so very much for your incredibly kind and generous offer! Im all good for Cox Wrenches (spanners) somewhere amongst the millions of tools and jigs in all of my old racing stuff will be the original Cox spanner I got with my PT 19 when I was approx 12 in 1973. I have many current spanners and have recently made myself some for cylinder removal. I will PM you later my tonight as to where `I am at with the Cox spanners. Im just quickly sending this off from my non work computer (my work computer blocks logging onto the forum as it goes through a hardware encrypted VPN and DOD firewalls). Just wanted to reply and thank you for the kind, generous and inclusive thought and offer! Im all good for spanners thanks. I will PM you tonight when I finish work and explain what I was meaning in my comment about the spanners.

Some how I got it in my head that you didn't have any Cox wrenches/ya spanners (from my British car days). Happy to hear that your up to snuff on them. Perhaps it was someone else. If so, contact me via PM.
They are shipped but I don't have them yet. Intentions are to sandblast the rusty ones and polish with Howards wax to retard further rust. Might even sort them out and put them under glass.

Cox under glass. Well plastic. China cheap.
Took the best ones from the group and cleaned them up a little. All different. The Cox gearheads here have already picked out the single Wen Mac.
Don't nail me on the bottom two right. They are different they have ridges running along one edge. I think they are a matched set incuded with a Cox engine. Maybe yes, maybe no.
The cross wrench bottom center I can't identify.
