Getting a little closer. I need to find a new rubber insert for the lid. The old one is in pretty bad shape. 

Still needs to be sanded and polished

Nice Job, the first set of pics looked like flat paint and I was thinking fingerprints and stains but I see in these photos the reflection of the wrenches on the tool board, shiny, glossy enamel, looking good

Thanks for the link but holy moley that's expensive. I'll probably just deal with the original one.

 

There's an ebay seller in the US that has them for around $15 but he doesn't ship to Australia.
