I have a Simplex Script spanner wrench. I don't know what it's application may be. Is this something that may be of use in your Simplex project? Thanks, Steve

Do you have a photo to post? It's hard to tell what it is for if we cannot see the actual script.
Do you have any information on tracking down the provenance of Simplex Cranes? We have #2308. The car was road tested by the Simplex Test Driver on 2/27/1917 and delivered on 3/1/1917 with coachwork by Kimball and I would love to know who the original owner was. We have traced it back to Pauline B. Snook of Schodack Center, NY, 1947, perhaps earlier, to 1962 when she died. She and her husband, Frank E. ran a garage there starting in 1929. She was very active in antique car circles in the area. Frank may have then owned the car as he survived her, I don't know. Their son Gordon F. Snook of Castleton, NY, owned it in 1981.
Any info would be most appreciated. Roberto Rodriguez, Executive Director, Seal Cove Auto Museum.

Could it be a Rudge-Whitworth wrench to remove/reinstall the
ring which attaches the wheels?
The wrench would be metal, larger than & somewhat like an oil filter wrench.
Wording Rudge -Whitworth stamped in the metal.
If so, the Seal Cove Auto Museum may own the car that it came from. The wrench we are looking for was sold to someone at Barrett-Jackson a number of years ago.
