Jupiter Tool Kit

Alan Stanley · Post by **Alan Stanley** » Thu Jan 18, 2007 5:34 am

We are entering one of our best Jupiters in an Intermarque concours in NZ in a couple of weekâ€™s time. Last year it wasnâ€™t quite finished and there were a few places where we could have scored better.

One area is in the tools and jack which we didnâ€™t really have.

We are struggling to find a list of the tools that the Jupiter had and what the tool roll looked like.

It is not a major issue because the judges wonâ€™t know either but it is one of those things that if you can get it close it is more satisfying.

Does anyone have any lists, photos or drawings or suggestions where to look?

I have researched the Jupiter (and Javelin) toolkit with assistance from the UK, US and Aust, and have tabulated a comprehensive list containing descriptions of the original tools which I can email to you if you send me your address. I also have copies of diagrams showing the dimensions etc of the original Jupiter tool-roll and tool compartment that I received from the US a few years ago.

I can confirm that the original Jupiter jack is a Lake & Elliot (England) model S416 1-ton telescopic screw type jack, 4 1/4" high in a cast body 4 3/16 OD painted bottle green, and in fact I managed to purchase one in rural Australia after a few years of searching the world for one. It is very likely that the jack I purchased was the original from my Jupiter as it was located quite close to the area where our car spent most of it's early years. The car has not had a jack for probably 40 years, until I reunited them in 2005! I also have diagrams showing the original L & E jack handle extension as well.
