Not much for originality but you've got to appreciate the craftsmanship and tidiness of this trunk. I'd like to see this owner's tool bench/attic/garage, etc.[:0]
I guess this is what you do once you have absolutely everything else detailed and sorted. Me, I'd probably take a drive instead.  ;)

With an acknowledgement that the result is far from what would be acceptable at an MBCA concours, one has to admire the amount of care and craftsmanship involved in tidying up that trunk.   My first thought was that the owner must spend a lot of time around boatyards.  This is just the sort of job one would do when adding storage lockers in a boat!

If my car, garage, or even my boat looked that neat I would never do any work on them.  I would be afraid I might get the tools dirty. In a boat everything has a place and everything in its place.  But than I have two of everything so I can find it.

Also a nice tough in using some Mercedes parts and pieces, for the med kit, and the knobs for the storage bins. A very, very nicely done job.
