Vintage Metallifacture Jack. Amazing original condition that has never been refurbished. Comes with original case.
 
This Jack came with my 1965 MK1 Austin Mini and I believe this is the original Jack that would have come with the car. 
 
The £250 price reflects the condition.
 
Collection from Southwell, Nottinghamshire. I will send by courier if buyer pays the cost.

Pop it on the Mk1 forum also but to me it doesn't look like a mini jack?

I believe they were the early ish Van and pickup Jack so may well have been supplied with some early Mk 1 cars. But you are right they are not Mini Saloon Jacks as such

We had one like that in our Vauxhall but the one in our Mini Van (floor button starter) wasn't like that.

Have a look here you will find Mokes and Pickups and Vans mentioned along with other UK cars for various types of these Metali Jacks. Seems there were some subtle differnces between them

Thanks for the link. It does appear that my jack would have been supplied with Minis between 1962-68.
