Some did, some didn't, and some that didn't had one available as an option.
I made a tool box. About 18 inches long, 6 inches wide, and about 8 inches deep, with a slant top hinged lid. I made it out of heavier guage sheeting, than the ones you can buy. It'd take alot, to even dent it. I bolted it to the side of the frame rail on one of my tractors, and it is probably the handiest tool box I got on a tractor. Even counting the factory ones I have.
I don't keep many tools in my tractor tool boxes. Basically things that are only used on that tractor. Spark plug socket, and so on. You'd be more apt to find more parts in my tool boxes than tools. An old radiator hose that wasn't blown when it was replaced. A hose clamp or two. Maybe the last spark plugs that got changed out. Or a good used plug wire.
Actually, if I throw tools in and out of the tractor tool box, they are most always for the implement that's hooked on. If tractor breaks down, you'll likely be walking home anyways. If implement breaks down, you have a better chance of getting back going again if you got the right tools to coble things up different. Take broken mower guard out of the middle of the bar, and move the inside end one to the middle, and keep on going by jogging out one guard width. Stuff like that. More you can scrounge to do, with the implement, moreso than the tractor. So, when I change the implement, I change out the tools. So nothing much, just stays in the box. A small box helps. If its to big, then you don't have to clean it out, to put other tools in it when you change implements.
My pet peeve, is driving someone else's cabbed tractor, with tools rolling around on the floor. 2 different guys I help, are both bad about that.

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
