I was looking at a copy of the "factory photos" CD that Clive Law sent me, and ran across the photo with the tool layout. With the excellent resolution of the photos, I was able to enlarge the photo to come up with the manufacturer's name "hercules". The same logo can be seen on the HUP photo Alex posted with the pick axe handle stowed.



I did find some Hercules tools listed on the net, but they seem to have migrated over to fiberglass handles now. I guess the challenge to the true CMP nuts will be to find vintage Hercules handles to stow on their vehicles.


When I enlarge the photo of the tool layout, you can also read the nomenclature on the shovel. It is not the manufacturer but rather a label for GM's stock room.
