A rather unusual jack.

It's made by Prima in Birmingham. Still works, going to clean it up. Does anybody have any information/history on these jacks?

"Prima Industries is an important company in the automotive industry.

Today it is one of the leading companies in the field of components for industrial vehicles, with a market presence in 63 countries. Prima clients are the big vehicle producers such as Iveco,Daimler Chrysler, Scania,Deutsche Bahn, Komatsu,Volvo, Caterpillar,New Holland, Lamborghini Auto andVan Hool that tend to decentralize production and use external suppliers to reduce labor costs".

Might be able to shed some light on it....

Founded in the early 1980s

The jack looks a little older than that.

I suggest that's not the right Prima !!
