Ok Chevy experts.. here is a easy one. I have seen no one ask what type of car jack came with the 31. I am getting close to the end of my restoration and I am looking for a jack. The only problem is I have no clue what type it was...... can anyone help?

Chip, I think I have the correct jack for my '31 but not sure about the correct jack handle.
If you have old Chevrolets, other old Chevrolets will find out where you live.

There are at least three different jack handles used during the '30-33 period. A square end and hook end with a handle rod, connector piece and then straight rod with end was used. Later a handle with the two rods rivited together and a sliding support was supplied. The handles are similar to those supplied with other cars including Model & F@$ds.

What other items came with the 31? I've seen many things at hershey (alemite grease guns, screw drivers, jacks, and oil cans for the fire wall) but never sure if they belong with my car. Thanks, jp
