Not only is this expensive but it won't fit under the frame if you have a flat tire. I carry a scissors jack since the time I had a flat and found out the original jack wouldn't compress enough to fit under the frame. I ended up using a jack from a 64 Chevy on the bumper to change the tire.

Double Ugly, Hold off on that one man, A shelley jack is a shelley jack. They supplied alot of the English auto makers with them. I seen them on ebay for $50-$150 mint. Remember, It's not a cobra jack,, It's an AC (Auto Carrier) jack, From England! Check the mg, sprite, Austin Heally forums/sites and you'll be surprised! I was hung on paying a premium for one and was schooled by a mate/chap on the matter! Hope this helps

I'm absolutely horiffied to see not only 10 bids cresting $900 for a jack but that he is selling the rest of the parts from a street car that has no doubt been "SCised". More history being rewritten, oh well.

Well on the gas cap filler item being sold, it says it was removed from the car 25 years ago. So perhaps a car was "SCized" 25 years ago. And this stuff has just been sitting in a box in a gargage or attack for all that time.

That's right, I forgot about the 25 year mention. I just saw his list and shook my head. I love original street cars and it just breaks my heart, 25 yrs ago or yesterday!
