What is the general opinion in here when it comes to old Assistents.
Keep patina or refurbish and re-paint?
Will an old Assistent have higher value if you do nothing, providing it's technically OK?

that's a personal opinion... like restoring (painting) or not a car or bus...

I prefer to let it as is with a good cleanup unlees it is un usable...

I just brought in a few items from Europe/UK. Two Essen trailers, three trailer hitches and these two Assistants. The only things Ive ever owned that were Hazet in the past were a couple of the early Type 3 tool kits. I've always liked these caddy's so fianly decided to get one-two of them.

From what I read I have a 60's era one and a 70's era one? Im not sure how to ID them yet and was hoping to get pinion or two here. Plans are to possibly restore one or both and maybe sell one? Not sure yet as Im still playing around with them.

Hello,

I recently bought a model 162. It has yellow brakes, the orginal tyres.
Only thing is that someone painted completely red.

I dismanteld the asisstant and want to powdercoat everything.
Is it correct that the blue color is RAL 660-2 and the grey color 9006?

I missing just the screw inside the knobs.
And i have two black knobs. Is this correct?

Great condition!

Yes 70's, I would say (flyer from 1979):

Anyone with some specs or years of manufacturing of the Assistent Hazet 168N?

Saw a Assistent 160 pre-'65 with only 1 shelf between bottom and top for sale (no stool):

Colors don't see right, but it's pretty rare and old.

Very nice film.

Cool video. Wish Hazet did more promotional stuff like that!

A few pages back I posted my 70s Assistent that I was planning to repaint. I still need to do the logo, but I'm looking for a local place to find near correct colors. I used a textured black on the top instead of gloss grey, and picked up some vinyl sheeting with almost the same original texture for the top.

I used Rustoleum Caribbean blue as suggested in a post somewhere above, it turned out great. Bought the paint last summer, but the problem is that now Rustoleum seems to have stopped making that color. I'd like to paint some other stuff. Sad

Have you guys found any other "cheap" options for the blue?

A good paintshop can scan a sample of the Hazet blue. That's a way to get yourself as much correct color coded paint as you like Wink

Bought this 168N today:

If your Assistent are made before 1965 (small a), then I can supply the colourcode from the scan of a NOS desk stand, we chosed the one that was most similar.

If your Assistent are made after 1965, then you can find the colour codes on www.hazet.de

So the blue changed in '65?
When I compare my early 90's Assistent (right on photo) with my '52 Hazet 100 (large wall box), the blue of '52 seems to be a bit lighter (left on photo).
Actually the pre-65 blue is a bit more real light blue than the more greenish-blue after '65.
Is that similar to the difference you observed?

tomas persson · Posted: Mon Jan 13, 2014 12:53 pm Post subject:

Yes, the light blue colour changed. The dark blue and the yellow was the same as before.

Yes, a big difference. Its easy to see on your photo.

Now we have a good comparison photo. Cool

I didn't see such one before.
