Hein Werner Mystery Jack

[CRTDI]

Came across this ad showing off a really cool modernistic styled Hein Werner floor jack. It appears to be rated at 2 Tons, however the ad doesn't really give a clue to it's model number, but calls it a "Swift Lift" ? I've never seen one quite like it and was wondering if anybody has some info on it.

Went through all my literature found nothing. Unusual style not sure it would have gone over very well. So the possibility of a reason why they may be rather uncommon. I say this as Hein Werner is the most frequently seen American jack at the flea markets that I attend.

I kind of like the style of it. The overall shape reminds me of a '65 or '66 Ford Galaxie for some reason.

I kept digging around and found that this style of jack was an actual series available in
1 1/2 Ton to 10 Ton capacities. The model numbers are SL-1, for the 1 1/2 Ton, SL-2 for the 2 Ton, SL-4 for the 4 Ton and SL-10 or the 10 Ton.
