Re: Bumper jack location in 1940, 120 Club Coupe

O, Jack in the Box!
I don't think I could remove my rear wheels using a bumper jack. I'm sure my original jack was replaced before 1959, because I've always had a screw jack and a very long crank (collapsable, folds in half) that works by jacking up the frame forward of the rear springs. I have to get the wheel off and the fender up pretty high to withdraw it.
Besides the risk of messing up a chrome bumper there's all the stress on the brackets. A bumper jack, really?
That is a very sweet ride, TWB!
