Thanks for all the responses guys. I would love to see whatever pictures and whatever specific info you can offer on the specific tools.
Cobra #3170: Man, I wish you hadn't told be that! I'd love to have the jack just to reproduce it. I understand the correct jack is a Shelly jack, LJ22 model, not the King Dick. You can't find them anywhere. I have heard the same complaint that they're not functional with a flat tire. I'd still like to have it for the trunk - I'll just carry a small length of 2"x6" (to drive the flat tire up onto it) along with it to make it work. The funny thing is, I have to do this now with my garage floor jack!
If any of you have the correct Shelly jack and will loan it or sell it to me, please chime in. Thanks!
