Mark
You made me curious so I looked into this (somewhat)
The Bugeye jacks ony have the letters BTD stamped on them.
The orange later spridget jacks were made by Shelly (ssame goes for the
Big Healeys) I have a spridget jack that still has the Shelly sticker on
it.
I bet it's worth $500 on Ebay!
I didn't think King Dick made the jacks.
But does the BTD stand for Bevelift ? ?
Or were these jacks as "new to you" in 1955 sold to another company by
the time our cars got them?
The 1955 picture is a dead ringer.
