Hand drill

My father's hand drill (1957) is on its last legs and I think I would like a new one. The Stanleys on Amazon get fairly poor reviews. Any recommendations?

Car boot sales. They are a regular 'appearer' in the box of old tools under the camping table. 50p ish.

I've got a Stanley Continental No748A in pretty good used condition which I never use. Wondered if it had any value. I'd guess it's '50s or '60s.

bought it in nineteen sixty-mumble and it's still going strong.

Strangely, decent hand tools very rarely come up on my local one. Maybe the odd wallpaper steamer that takes up a lot of space.
