Vintage Blackhawk SJ18 floor jack score!

Stumbled across this beauty today and picked it up. Cast aluminum and it works extremely well. Going to make a great restoration project. Anyone else here have one? Very Art Deco-ish streamlined Bonneville salt flats racer looking thing.

I saw one of those at an antique shop but they wouldn't sell it. Curious what you paid? I'd love to find one for my tool collection...

That has to be the sexiest jack I have ever seen! What a beautiful piece of history. I hope it turns out well for you.

After a little googling I found a SJ18 restoration thread in of all places.....Garage Journal.

What a beauty this one turned out to be and no doubt where mine will end up.

I picked one up a few years ago, mine has the rubber coated wheels.
