Correct jack for 1935 Plymouth PJ?

[rrunnertexas]

I would like to have the original type of tire changing jack in my 1935 Plymouth PJ as it is missing.

 

Can anyone with experience tell me if this listing on ebay is the jack that is correct?

It sure doen't look anything like the factory jack that came with the 1938 Chrysler I bought when I was 14. It was a traditional jack with a traditonal jack handle that also worked to loosen and tighten the lug nuts.

Knuckle,

 

Well, the one listed may not be correct then.

 

A photo of the correct one would be perfect, that way I can keep an eye out for one.

 

Thanks!

Not making any promises because I haven't seen it in years,but it is most likely stored in some corner of my shop. Maybe I can find it,and maybe I can't. If I do,I will post a photo.

 

It looks VERY much like a skinny 1950's car jack. Base plate the jack "body" fits into,and a "hook" on the end of the part that does the actual jacking that lets the thin 30's bumpers fit into a narrow slot to keep the bumper from slipping in the jack due to the curve of the bumper.

 

Typical jack handle like seen in every bumper jack seen up through the 70's,with a lug nut "socket" as a part of the end with the handle.

 

It will look a lot like this one,but I am NOT saying this is the restoration perfect bumper jack for your car.

 

If you just want a jack to jack your car,look for one that looks like this and the part that jacks your car fits your bumper,
