[Chrysler300] 1955 Bumper Jack



New challenger:  The hook on the jack that came with my 1955 Chrysler 300
does not work with the bumpers on the car.  It slides out from underneath
rather than hooking the underside of the bumper.

It would be appreciated if someone could describe or send me a photo of a
correct bumper jack hook for this car.  That assumes the basic jack will
accept the proper hook.  The jacking mechanism has a notch that the hook
fits into and the hook is then retained by a lateral spring.

The car was restored by the previous owner and the restorer may have
provided a very pretty jack, perhaps repainted and restored or even new.
The jacking mechanism and base plate are light battleship gray.  The hook
has the following numbers on it:  2931101 and 93153.  Those look to be much
later part numbers so perhaps the whole jack is incorrect.  The hook is 1
3/4" between the flats and 4 1/4" in length.  I recall a criticism that the
mechanism and base should be glossy black enamel.

I'll be probably be needing a very nice proper bumper jack hook or a
complete jack.  Please let me know availability and terms for any extra jack
or hook you have that may be surplus to your needs.  I also need a proper
retainer spring to hold the jack in its place in the trunk.

C-300'ly,
Rich Barber
1955 Chrysler C-300 (No flat tire--just wanted to jack up the car so I could
get under it for inspection)
