I have the exact same one. I sent you a note saying that the chain link on yours looks smaller, but they are the same size. I cannot find a name anywhere. I still have original paint yellow paint in some areas of mine.

Crazy how there is no Manufacturing numbers or name. Someone thought it might be a Manley, but I can't verify.

Also, I see above someone from Ford Barn is looking for one. This jacks was from a Ford dealership in Naples FL. Coincidence?

I went out this morning and searched everywhere for some number or name. Nothing. Many people collect these unique jacks. I see them on eBay go for $400+. I just got this, I figured for $30 I could not walk past it. It would get $30 for scrap. It works well, but in the fully closed position, it will not fit under the rear end of my car. Be careful using it, there are so many handles and knobs, that has to be done at the right time. I have had it drop twice when I pulled the wrong leaver. But it is very cool in the shop.

I will look more, but this morning it is about 3 degrees, so I did not really check every spot. I will keep in touch.
