The Ford Barn

I have come across what appears to be an original vinyl covered suitcase containing a complete set of Model A tools including a jack, oil can, tire pump, starting handle, original owners manual, spark plugs and other items. The case is lined in what appears to be a blue velvet looking material. The individual tools are kept in place with button straps. Does anyone have any idea what this kit is worth?

The jack is worth over a hundred alone. It's a March 31 to end.

The jack handle does not look correct and I can't make out the details on the tire pump.

Inquiring minds would like to see the tools priced out. I will never have a collection of multiple Model A's but collecting the tools may be fun.
