    This is pretty awesome. This jack was made between 1931-1934 same outfit that makes the famous Manley valves for racing. Great job. Glad to see an upgrade on the hardware.

    Would look great under an old straight axle Model T picking up the front end. Very nicely done, but invest in a sandblast cabinet, would save loads of time plus limit the exposure to harsh chemicals, and all the rust-lead paint dust from wire wheels. Use some shim washers right and left on those captured pins to keep parts centered, and a few drops of oil on moving parts (not grease....only attracts sand, and dirt). Incidentally love the Weimaraners (5?).
