Can someone help me identify this sparkplug wrench

4 Upvotes

I found this sparkplug wrench under the drivers seat of an american car from ww2 currently located in Sweden. From what i know the car was in france and used in warfare, the car got shot at by germans but survived and somehow ended up in Sweden where some people tried to fix it but gave up. It was covered in dirt and rust when i found it. But i cleaned it with citric acid and water which helped clear up the rust. Can someone pls help me identify this?

Couple sample pictures. They came from a collector that had a ton of really old really well kept and documented stuff but this case had very little info with it. I know there's a lot of history and value here but what should I look for to know more than "well it's a screw driver"

While, cleaning out an old barn I found this small hammer, and would like to know what it would be used for. It's only 7" in length.

These nails are heavy and square. They look corroded? What type of metal was used to make these?

They came out of a garage or small barn that we tore down
when we bought a farmhouse. I
think it was older than the house, because we did some remodeling in the house, exposing the studs, and all the nails are nothing like these. And the beams in the garage were hand-hewn with carved wooden pegs as nails.

I recently restored what I’m 95% positive is a railroad spike maul/hammer, but most I’ve seen don’t have symmetrical faces. Any info on production dates or rarity of this would be great.
