Default Model A parts and tool storage

My Dad was out for a visit last week and wanted something to do, so I asked him to build storage boxes for under the rear seat of the Station wagon. They work like big drawers. Now I'm organized! From left to right:
- cleaning and first aid
- spare parts
- tools and the always handy Les Andrews book
- tubes/tire repair and tow strap
I can also find stuff under the front seat now. Before it was so packed with parts and tools you couldn't find anything.

I have materials cut to build boxes for under the jump seats as well, now I just need time (or another visit from Dad).
