40 Bumper Jack and Stowage Location
 

Anyone have pictures of the stowage location for a 40 Sedan bumper jack and associated accessories

No photos but it's pretty simple to describe.
The jack, handle and base were placed within a burlap bag which was subsequently placed in the tool tray.
That's it... nothing fancy at all.

Guess I was trying to over think it, thought maybe the jack was anchored or held down some how so it wouldn’t bounce around. So everything just fit in a burlap bag and placed in the tray.
Thanks Dave

Yep Dave - that's it. The hand tools were placed in a leatherette pouch and subsequently tossed in the tool tray.
The hand tool pouch came in two designs. The upper design in the photo is the more scarce of the two.
The burlap sacks also came in two designs. The difference? The Ford script was added after January 18, 1940. Prior to that, no script...

Yes that is it. On a 40 station wagon, there is an opening on the left side under the middle seat where the floor kicks up that has a receptacle there for the jack and tool pouch. I had a sedan delivery at one time but don't remember where that jack went (maybe in the space for the spare tire) but all the normal passenger cars were there at the back of the trunk floor.
