Hello - wondering if this jack is for post-356 Porsches, and if so which one. I was told the blue is less Hazet and more Bilstein (did not know Bilstein painted jacks). Thought it was for VWs, but was purchased from the estate of Steve Weiner, so it makes sense if a Porsche. Or did Steve just paint a Toyota jack to match his other tools?

2 things going for it Bakelite lever handle and rough cast jack point arm.

2 things pointing away from it's title. Porsche jacks seem better quality finish also tend to use the wheel nut wrench as the jack handle lever for an overall better quality whilst at the same time saveing weight.
It also looks like the jack tubing is a mass produced formed tube unlikely for a low production pre a series jack.
