I'm looking to purchase a period correct jack for my '73 S. I'm not sure of the correct make or type of jack that is right for my car. It's a 2.4S manufactured in April 1973 to USA spec. Any pointers would be very much appreciated. Must be in good condition. Many thanks.
this is the picture from my '73 owners manual.

Thanks Jerry! Hope I find one exactly like that.
I have these...think the one on the right is the one you want
Thanks jhora. Wow those three all look quite close to each other in design. I haven't a clue about jacks - what is it about the one on the right that makes it the correct type for a '73 S?
I'm in the UK. Are you in UK or USA?
What is your price on that jack?
The one on the right is I think correct for early 70 models....the one on the left is a later 80s style as the insert changed....the middle one is like the early one but has an offset handle...not sure about it....I may be all wrong about the two on the right....maybe we have an expert here to help....yes in USA....happy to ship to UK but prices are a little much.....
Jacks have been discussed in depth -- here is a thread that may help you - MY 73 discussion come about half way through the thread.
I thought you might be interested in reading this web page:

Thanks neunelfs, that jack thread was very helpful. What about this one I just found on ebay - it looks almost identical to the one on the right in jhora's photo: http://ebay.eu/1l2mnAK
Could be right for a '73 S?
UPDATE: I have just bought the one on eBay for $100 plus shipping! Sorry jhora that I bought it elsewhere, but ebay just made it all so easy. Thanks again for posting pictures of your three jacks which was very helpful.
If it proves to be the wrong jack I'm sure I can sell it easily enough, but it looks about right to me.
