help to indentify the layout of the jack and tools in the trunk

my old wheelnut-tool niquel treated

hi, i had a small problem with my wheelnut-tool, due to that the original one was not present in the car, so i found one in a second hand shop, but it was very rusty and the chrome was very poor, see attached:

so i went to a local chrome treatment firm, and i gave it to them

the problem in this tool is that you can not remove the small flange (used to remove the wheelcaps) so when you try to renew the chrome, this is a handicap

nevertheless the result was good enough, but it was not chromed, but nickel-ed, you might know the chrome is the final step, it is like a "flash", and this was impossible taking into account that the small flange will produce inconvenient shadows

i think it is good enough !
 
looks nice to me! All of our rechroming places were wiped out from Katrina so I have no local options here. Probably ends up saving me money anyway :mrgreen:
 
Are you seeking to have originality?

I've sensed that as one of your goals--so--the placement shown of your lug wrench and your hold down don't meet that goal.

I'll get three or four pictures that show the correct original method and placement for the jack and lug wrench--also the correct clamp and lug nut method for securing your spare wheel/tire.
