The regular early (pre 1930) Austin 7 jack handle fits on the floor in front of the back seat, extending under the bucket seat.
I regularly use an early Holden Bottle Jack (extends more than the Austin 7 jack having three threads). The 3/8" jack handle is shortened, threaded and fitted with an Austin 7 wheel nut to enable the Austin 7 Wheelbrace to be used as a 'crank' and still be stored under the seat.
This idea was suggested to me by the remaining founder member of the Austin 7 Club Inc Melbourne, Doug Veel.
