Original Jack and tool

Anyone out there have an original jack and tool for my 66?
Thanks!

I have them and I don't use them. Very good condition.

Can you post photo of an original jack and tools?

Yes, I can do that. Give me a day. I'm not entirely sure if I have the locking plate that attaches all of them to the floor easily available. But I know I have it somewhere. I know where the jack with the rod that uses it is and the original wheel wrench is at least. They are secured behind the driver seat to the long stud that is welded to the floor.

Thanks, I also would like to see the photos.

JariV what year is your van? Do you have any other photos of it?

It's a 1969. I have few photos from the photoshoot session for a magazine feature here. That's about it.

Are those photos available somewhere? It looks good in the little shots on the web!!

No, I only have the pics in my computer and now for some reason I cannot seem to be able to upload them to Photobucket so I could share them here.

If you need the pics for the jack PM me your email. I'll take those pics tomorrow.

JariV, awesome van! What magazine was that?

What size wheels are you running?

Thank you.

My van was featured in a Finnish magazine for American cars. The name is V8 Magazine.

Size of the wheels is stock Chrysler 6,5x15" in the front and 9x15" in the rear. Both of them are with the same backspacing.

Great looking van!! My 66 is featured in the latest issue of Classic Trucks magazine.
It is good to see that the A100's are getting some respect.

I agree with you. To me these vans and trucks are exotic and beautiful. Admittedly and obvious I like Dodges best but Chevys and Fords are exiting and different too.

RDR838, may I ask where in Europe you are from?

Pentastar66, which issue exactly? Feb 2014?

Jari: Northern Germany (Bremen, where Beck's beer is brewed...)

It's not my van though, I'm helping my friend. I decided against it a couple of years ago and bought a Coronet wagon instead to be company to my Charger. When it was for sale again my buddy bought it and we're bringing it back to live together.

Thanks for the info on the wheels. We're thinking 7" in the front and 8" in the back but good to know even 9" fits! What width are the tires?

Guten tag Chris,

I've got 255/60R15 in the back. They are slightly narrower than those 9" wide wheels. I wanted it that way so that they would look old school like the tires in the front. Other reason was that I wanted the lip of the wheel to be almost flush with the side skin vertically. It gave me a nice visual effect that it looks old but still a bit racey. Or something. I'm happy the way it looks.

What's your favourite beer by the way?

Sounds great, we'll see if it fits with the wheels we have, they should have 4.5" BS.

I like beck's but there's so many good ones out there
