[Healeys] Early Jack Handle Sets

[Bob Spidell]

I'll add that you REALLY want a geared scissor jack; I don't care what 
the jack's rated for, they're almost useless to lift a Healey (unless 
you're really a brute). I don't know why--maybe because they cost a few 
more bucks--but they're almost impossible to find anymore (I bought one 
for each of my cars years ago). Ex:

I have a similar one with an electric motor I keep in my Mustang.


ps. I'm guessing Michael wants a Shelley for originality.
