Hi guys 
New here but wondered if anyone could help me identify the maker of this jack? Found myself in need of another jack lately and found this one under the bench of my dear departed Dad's shop. I remember it being around as long as I can remember(40+ years) but rarely do I remember it being used. Floor jacks were used more than anything there. I just assumed it didn't work but dug it out and cleaned some crud off it and it appears to work so far. There is a problem with the release, had a heck of a time getting it to go back down but seems the more its used the better its working.
I'm debating about trying to find a kit for it and do a rebuild on it since the ram and the pump piston are not very polished anymore. Only markings I can find on it are on the base in the front. It says "Made in USA" and "CAP 3 TON".
Any ideas?

He was a full time machinist and part time farmer so things were rebuilt/repaired on a regular basis. Not sure what surprises I will find when I take it apart.
