It used the ratcheting lug wrench for the jack but also needed the special lug wrench like used with the 15 inch Crager wheels. Your trunk would typically have two different lug wrenches.

Thank you. I saw that the ratcheting one didn't fit the 10 spoke lugs it was too big. There was a tire iron in trunk that fit lugs. Any markings to tell if it's the original one? Thank you. Jim

Yes ,there is a makers mark stamped on many and also the way the handle is swedged.  Don't hold out hope to finding one would be my advise.  Fortunately there are nice repros.
