Jack Storage

How and where was the Jack and Handle originally stored in a slick? I dont believe they were just throwed under the seat like my 65.

Lowell,

I believe the jack mounted on one of the inner fenders, but I'm not sure where. My '79 had all the parts under the hood. If I remember correctly, the jack and lug wrench sat on the drivers inner fender and the jack crank was clipped in front of the radiator. My two slicks that I have don't have any evidence of clips or anything, but I think they would have been similar.

Thanks Bill ,My 65 doesnt give me a clue to where the jack was originally stored. Ive seen later models with the jack on the inner fender like you said but didnt know about mine

I have yet to see a Slick with the jack mounted to the inner fenders. Actually don't think I have ever seen an original jack for these trucks.

My first 64 came with what I assume is the original jack and crank. Was throwed behind the seat!

Think that was more'n likely the case
until after '67 when they (Nader) started getting sticky about what stuck out, jabbed you, and whacked you in the head in an accident..
