I forget what they=E2=80=99re supposed to look like as have never had =
one. I have something similar which I =E2=80=9Cborrowed=E2=80=9D from =
the army many moons ago. I carry that plus a small scissors which will =
do to raise the car enough to get the other jack in place.

Agreed, my Shelly Jack is in the tool box in my garage for safe keeping. =
Never did have a handle.

Many years ago in the 80=E2=80=99s I bought a small scissors jack from =

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:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KWLNNV4

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


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