What kit did these jacks come from

[junkyardjeff]

I have this one and two that were never put togather or painted,its been so long since I got them I can not remember what kit they came from.

Some Monogram Thunderbird, Grand Prix, and Buick stock car kits had floor jacks.

A particular kit that I know has a jack like that is the MPC Dodge Lil Red Express pickup.  Other MPC Dodge truck kits of that era may have them also.

I have never built that race car so it must have been the Dodge trucks.

The MPC Dodge pickup annual kits from 74-77 had similar jacks in them, along with a small tool box. I can't remember if the AMT 53 Ford pickup had a floor jack, I remember it had welding tanks and some other tools.With that kit ('53 Ford pickup) set for reissue, we will find out soon!

If I recall correctly, the '53 Ford pickup truck kit did not come with a jack. However I have been wrong before at least once. LOL!

The '53 Ford pickup has been available for some time now.  It doesn't have a jack like this, it includes a "scissors jack" like that included with many new 1:1 cars.

A similar jack to this one, plated, is in the Model King wedge hauler parts pack from about ten years ago.

It was reissued this year [or early last] no jacks like that one.

I agree, looks like the Dodge pickup one to me.

That is definitely the jack that came with the Dodge trucks, I have one from the 73 annual and another from the Little Red Express.

I just sent another member that exact same jack in a trade, along with jack stands, lug wrench, tool box, gas can & the "haul-it" trailer.

All came from the MPC 1968 Dodge Coronet kit.

I have one of those trailers I need to repaint and I would like to have another one of those Dodge trucks but they go for too much money now.
