The is an old working mechanical jack made by the Weaver Co. This jack dates back to the mid 1920s. It was called a Lo-Way, as it had a 6'' drop so as to be able to get under the balloon tires of old. It is all mechanical with all the levers, steerable front wheels, and pump action that made it a very popular jack back in its day. Hydraulic jacks would come out in 1928, but many still preferred the Lo-Way because it worked and didn't need seals and fluid to always work. This thing is big and heavy. It measures almost 5' long and 18" wide , with the handle almost 4' long. If you're in to wanting something that the early garages would have had around, this is it. Makes for a great conversion piece. Everything is there and ready to be restored (I think that the original paint was green) or leave it with its patina. This probably going to have to be a pickup locally, although we do travel some and might be able get close to where you live. Thanks for looking. LMK if you might be interested. $150.
