68-70 charger jacks , due it your self make one

[Old Moparz]

Are the factory Charger jacks worth that much money?  I should sell mine if they are - I never have / will use it. 

I've used that type of jack many years ago because that's all you had in the car. It can be very interesting watching the car teeter & sway from tractor trailers blowing past you on the shoulder while you balance 4000 pounds on top of a ratcheting pencil.   

And also why one of the first things I did with every car since, was replace the ratcheting pencil with a small floor jack. I still have 4 or 5 jacks with various bases & hooks, I just don't recall what cars they're from.

Good job Stuart, it will look close enough that most people will never know.

and as you say its dangerous so it will never get used .  It will just be pretty in the trunk at shows        I have a small sissor jack kit out of a junk yard car I just move from car to car when i'm driving on long trips .

Good point and I do the same.  I don't think I would use the original bumper jack on any of these old cars other than for show or emergency.

Those original jacks need a warning sticker "for display purposes only" 


Used to use them but wouldn't want to be stuck in the situation of having to use one anymore.

My car will have to pass inspection before i can plate it. I bet the B#$@@#$s won't pass it unless it has a spare and jack.
