No worries John. Suggest you buy a jack handle from Fiat which for all practical purposes will do the job just as well. I don't have any spare handles, but could make a replica, as I have nearly all the bits!  If you are interested in that I can work out a price for you. Kindest regards, |

Sorry I have been so slow seeing this, if you still need another to make up the numbers, please count me in, cheers.

Chris, I took the plunge last year and made a batch of the 'gears' anyway, but still have a few left if you really need one.

Here's my latest escapade with Pedestal Jack the lofty one, who belongs to my Appia coupe. She has a dent in the LHS sill because a previous owner used Bottle Jack on her, as Pedestal Jack's nut was stripped... Made a new one in brass to match the acme thread, dollied up the inside handle shaft, gears, and even cast a new top cover which was missing. The foot was also horribly dented, which required removal using a Dremel to carefully cut the welding. Now all's well that ends well.  |

Guy, looks interesting but not being a Aprilia man how does it locate, I assume we're looking at the jack from the top? Brian 8227  |

Sorry Brian, my previous photo showed the pedestal jack disassembled. Here's what it looks like now it's finished. It works by inserting the pin from the jack's leg into a hole in the Appia's sill. Typical Lancia, the hole has a beautiful chrome plug, and the jack is also well made - even a ball bearing race below the bevel gears in the head to make things turn easily. |

Vey similar in principle to a jack I had with a 1963 Mini, but of much superior quality manufacture! Brian 8227 |

I was having lunch with ann Aurelia owner a few weeks ago, when he told me that the Aurelia jack is the same as the Appia's, but has a round 'foot'.
Can anyone with an original Aurelia jack confirm this please?
