V.Milke Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Hi, Were there any tools supplied originally with the 1934 Buicks? I would love to find a correct jack as well as the rest of the tools that were supplied with the car, if any. Would anybody have the information? Thanks, victor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave39MD Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 This would be a good thread to read. Karl is the tool go to guy but his stuff stays packed for Hershey so I am going to follow up next fall. If you had pictures of known original tools or a reference book of sorts you maybe able to find some on your own. Is there a reference book on automotive tools? The parts books list them, I think the section 8.818 is a good place to start , 2.273 for the plug wrench. I have not been able to find jacks and tire tools yet so if anyone knows that group please pass it along. I found most of my tools were model a and franklin.

Buick35 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I have a 35 and would like to know also.I have an old car jack that a neighbor gave me and I bought a handle for it. Unfortunately it's a little too tall to fit under the car where it needs to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought mine years ago from a Hershey vendor, and don't recall who, but he specialized in restored vintage jacks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick looks fine for 39 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Charles Halpin's phone number is 215-896-0065. Interesting foot note; Charlie fitted out a correct tool kit for FDR's 36 Ford convertible at the Franklin Roosevelt Museum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Winters Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Here is a jack I have in my 34-68C. Not sure if it’s original. My dad had several jacks he collected over the years. Probably from a Hershey meet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayG Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Here's a pic I pulled off the internet. It shows the jack and handle for a 35 Buick. I'm not saying this is correct but based on the handle clips it may be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
