Vintage Walker Floor Jacks

[TommyBoyee]

Hello,

Ive been the proud owner of an old Walker jack for many years now. I bought it back in the 90s from a neighbour that worked at Ford. Its given great service before and since.

Although I love the jack and have the skills to repair it, I never did because it only drifts a bit and has did so since I bought it. Life changes, I suffered a majour back injury in 2014 which has curtailed any mechanical work in the foreseable future. As such Im looking to sell it and would like an idea of what a reasonable price would be.

Any thoughts....

I gave $40 for mine at a swap meet, and it has the stamped axle and jack covers. I wasn't sure if I could get the cash out of my pocket quick enough. I'd have gladly paid $150 for it.

My guess is that you could get anywhere between $100-200 for the jack, depending on your local market.

Thank you, Im in the Toronto area. Im putting it on Kijiji for $150 and see. Unfortunately the handle has a kink in it from a previous incident. Looks like a vehicle fell on it or some such thing.

Nice jack. It would be helpful to know the model number/lift capacity. Unfortunately, the missing cover & kinked handle will likely reduce its value. Heres a link to a GJ post with a bunch of info on that series of "greyhound" style Walker jacks.
