Wheel jack and spanner

[Esteban]

Hi.

I have a 1970 round nose mini and stay in Roodepoort.

A genuine mini jack is like gold to find dude.

Funny shaped prong looking thing that inserts into the sill of the car and jack both front and rear wheels up at the same time.

Maybe one of the guys that has one can post a pic for you.

But like I say. Hens teeth.

I sold a 1275E one to Faraaz.

The later 1275E came out with a standard type scissor jack with a special top bit welded on, that slotted into the hole in the sills

This is the jack I bought only to find out my sill holes are vertical not horizontal, who wants to swap?
Now the question is: are the wheel nuts 18mm as even this spanner is a bit loose.
