Vintage Floor Jacks and other shop Equipment

I have a number of my uncle's shop things to sell, he and his father owned and ran an automotive repair shop from the turn of the century until the 1970's, when the city bought the property to build a large hotel complex on. I'm helping my cousin clean out his dad's garage as his dad passed away a few years ago.

The first item is a Walker floor jack from the 50's. It works perfectly and although a little dirty it's in great shape.

Asking $300, open to offers.

I can be reached thru the forum or call Dave at 913-948-3652

Edit - Added some pics

Sold

Next , another floor jack - this one is a Blackhawk S4. I'm not sure of the vintage but might be a few years older, it also works perfectly.

In the pic they're wet because I used my pressure washer to clean off the dirt, they've been sitting in my uncles garage since he closed his shop in the 70's

This jack also works perfectly - as in it goes up and down, I didn't try to lift a car with it, but they don't leak and pump up.

Asking $300, open to offers.

contact me thru the forum or call Dave @ 913-948-3652

Sold

Next, another floor jack, I'm not sure of the brand, this one does not move, but that could be because I don't know how the controls work.

Open to info and offers on this one, it appears to be from the 20's or 30's

SOLD! Next, a HeinzWerner bumper jack....I don't know if the "55' on the label is the model number or the vintage.....it also works fine.

$250, accepting offers. Contact Dave thru the forum or at 913-948-3652

Next, a massive chain hoist.....A Yale Model B-B, spur geared block it says ....this thing is pretty massive, I didn't try to pick it up but my cousin remembers they used it to pull engines. It's rated at 1 1/2 tons which seems light given the size of it.

$200 or offer

I'll be posting more equipment as I can free it from the garage it's been stored in for about 40 -50 years.....there is a large, foot operated brake shoe riveter, a Champion spark plug cleaner, a number of jack stands, some rated at 5 tons, an Autolite parts cabinet full of parts like points and condensers, a complete Souix valve grinder and a B&D seat grinder and a number of other things yet to be discovered.

There are two old oil burning furnaces that he used to heat the shop, and a large Oxy/Acetylene torch setup.....lots of 5 gal Kendall oil cans, an Argo gear oil pump still full of gear oil and lots of other stuff....I'll post more up over the next few weeks, depending on the weather. The house is being sold so it all has to go.....

Bump?

Bump

Still have the Walker, and the other older jack has been identified as a Walker also.

Losing my storage at the end of the month, need to sell these!

Most of the other stuff is gone now, making progress. Still have the chain hoist and a cool ARO gear oil pump and the Hemmeter Dial-O-Matic on-the-car wheel balancer.

Sold

I have since learned that the oldest jack is a Weaver, from the late 30's...

It doesn't work and needs to be restored but it appears to be complete.
