What is your favorite tool? There are so many in the tool box but my favorite now is the Flex Head Ratchet crescent wrenches. These have saved me so much hassle in tight corners and worked perfectly. I even went and got metric set for chores on the wife's Maxima.
All the tool companies carry their version but I like the Gear Wrench brand. The ratcheting stops inside the tool can vary with brand, some give more turn to each 'click' than others but all in all, the nicest tool I own.
What is yours?

Jim: just got my tools from the ex-wife... I guess her new fella didn't think I'd notice all the missing stuff. I'm not too handy with tools so I defnatly love any "ratchet" set. Guess I'll be having a conversation with this guy about those and other stuff.

Since I'm stuck in panel replacement hell, my Harbor Freight body saw has been my best friend.

Funny this pops up today. Yesterday I removed the radio from the Firebird. The shaft nuts were round with two slots. This has never been removed since it left the line. Needlenose pliers woud'nt touch them. I had an old double ended socket from a snowmobile, the kind of tool quality one gets with say a chain saw. I ground and filed to leave two tabs sticking out, popped those rings off perfectly. I think maybe thats why alot of dashes are broken here. FWI, the perfect size is 7/16". My favorite tool of the day!

I like my set of crow's feet. I don't use them often but they sure come in handy some times....

Bought these wrenches from a buddy about 7 years ago. Got a set of the standard ones too. They are awesome and theyre my favorite.

well carb im with you in body panel replacement hell, so im a big fan of this spring loaded spot weld drill bit at the moment. i finally went through the first bit thanks to the hardness of the metal surrounding welds so i got a 3 pack of replacements.

it also leaves you a nice hole in one side of the panels your working on so you can re-weld it easily

Shoot man, I have a fortune in tools. I don't buy tools like I used to, but it still doesn't phase me to walk on Snap and spend a grand. Not counting company owned stuff that I consider mine but it's theirs and I'll give back if ever we part, but still mine for now. I have lots that I'm really proud of and get a big grin each use. But my fave, that's simple. It's a 40 year old POS Thorsen 1/2 by 9/16" open end wrench. All my guys know don't be touching my favorite wrench unless I hand it to them. It is close followed by my 426 channellocks, then my antique Armstrong 7/16 box/open. Yeah I got all Snap too. So what. My Dad didn't give them to me.

Had to think long and hard (no pun intended) about which tool has been my fav, and I after much thought...I'd have to give the old vice grips that nod. It's been there to hold metal on the grinder...to act like a wrench, when there was little left of the bolt head or nut...and to grab and hold that what ever like a third hand. IMO
