Re: Jack Identity parade
Need close-up photos to be sure, but at a guess:
Britool late-50’s Morris minor
Britool 13H449 ‘59-62 mini mk1
Tangye-Shelley [Rollalift] 13H838, ‘62-69 mini mk1 & mk2
Metallifacture CHM64, mid-60’s on, more common on ‘67+ mini mk2 & mk3
The bottom two were interchanged as alternative sources during mk1 production, the Metallifacture becoming more common from mk2 onwards until introduction of the scissor Jack in mid 1970’s.

Re: Jack Identity parade
Both the A frame jacks are Morris Minor. The fitting is wrong for a Mini one.

Re: Jack Identity parade
Wrong willys Mark
Thanks folks.
Just found a Metallifacture one with a ratchet. Thought it was off an E-type when I read the blurb
and just planning my next holiday on the proceeds.
God how many did they use???

Re: Jack Identity parade
Mark is right, second one down is not mini - has the wrong size willy.
Could also be for an MG rather than Minor, as it points up not down.
Ooer-missus.
