But, if it says Crescent on the handle, it's a Crescent shifting spanner.

We bought our GMC from a dealer. It was an "as is" deal and needed a little work. The P.O. had requested the dealer not to give out his name to any new buyer. My supprise find was that the FMCA number was on the coach. This gave me a way to get the P.O.s phone number. He answered many of my questions and had quite a few extra parts that I was able to get. He was at first upset with the dealer until I told him that I got his information from the FMCA number that HE had left on the coach.
That was my lucky find.
