Database For Vintage and Classic Miscellaneous Vehicle Jacks
Other vintage British car jack databases:
George Radion in Australia has a database on Australian-made Jacks
This database is for vintage and classic miscellaneous vehicle jacks. This database is for 'one-off' British car jacks that do not warrant a separate database. Once a specific maker has about 4 entries I will spin them off to a dedicated database. Many of the photos and comments have been gleaned from Ebay and other sites. I would be pleased to add photos and comments from anyone who has information on these jacks.
Please note that this information is accurate to the best of my knowledge, but I make no claims about authority on this subject. Use your own discretion when evaluating the accuracy of the information.
All these jacks are now old. I would recommend that they are now used only for display purposes. If one is used for lifting a vehicle, the operator should never put them self underneath the supported area without additional load bearing equipment in place, such as block of wood. Never use bricks for this purpose.
The values are normally taken from auction sites world-wide, but exclude postage.
Request to vendors: Please feel free to use the information from these databases in your adverts. An acknowledgement of the source would be most welcome. However, please do not twist any of the information. Where I say along the lines: 'May be for car X' please make this clear in your advert. An altered statement saying: 'It is for car X' will create false facts and misinformation. If you know for certainty a jack's heritage please contact me so that I can amend the entry. Thank you.

Description: The Adams trolley jack is pre 1914, being made by the Adams Manufacturing Company of Bedford that closed in that year.

Description: Research by NewMoody suggests that this jack was made by a firm in Leicester, Mason and Brown, who made motor cycles in the Volta Works (1904 1906). The most important clue that this is a British jack comes from a Lake & Elliot patent GB190223205, awarded 27 Aug 1903 and is the patent for this jack. It is a single screw ratchet jack. The only marking is the small brass plate stamped Volta. The jack is 10 1/4 closed. Screw length is 8 3/4. Height extended about 16 allowing for safety. The base is 4 3/4 X 2. The grub screw in the head contains a brake which slows the centre screw when the ratchet is used and there is no load. All photos, data and excellent analysis courtesy NewMoody.
