“1958 jeep fc-150 4×4. this is an cool truck, very rare, and in good driving condition, not many made like this, its a ‘forward control” flat nose jeep truck on a cj-5 frame all factory, I drive this truck often, it has the original 4 cylinder, three speed, drive train, factory wheels, i’ve updated some of the items in the truck such as: radiator, hoses, lights, tires, shocks, shackles, gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, water pump, tune up, rebuilt carb, etc., like i said I drive it regularly, I’ve driven as far as 50 miles from home with it, it only goes 45 mile per hour so its not the best travilin truck, but it will climb anything. it does have some rust in the body, defantly reparable, the frame is straight and repainted, I don’t really want to sell but I could use the money. I have a clean tennessee title in hand. thanks for looking.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2250.

This doesn’t run at this time.

“1957 FC 170 (FORWARD CONTROL) 8,000 lbs. on the tag. Overall truck is in good condition for its age and the way the FC’s rust out. Has some small holes in floor by your feet and some small rot in cab corners. Has the hurricane straight 6 in it with the high low box. The engine ran about 5 years ago but was parked due to faulty brakes. The engine now spins over freely but has no spark, looks like a points, condensor, rotor, cap, and wires are needed to hear her run again. The steel stake bed is fully functional dumping box with its own PTO lever and pump and resovoir. This is the first year of hte FC and the only produced them for 6 years. I have many pics and can send them if you would like.”

This is a rough FC.

“Early year FC 150 1957-58. All running gear is present. The original F134 4 cylinder is rebuilt but not installed. It has a reground crank and a standard bore. $800”

Here’s an East Coast FC.

“1961 Willys FC 150 stakebody truck with 4 cyl. F head engine, 3 spd. trans., and 6 lug (disc brake front) rears. I don’t know the make of the rears or the ratio, but they are way higher than 538s. The engine is completely stock original and starts and runs good. No smoke. Needs the valves adjusted. The truck is driveable around the yard, but needs a master cylinder and brake hoses if you keep these rears. Lights, horn, and wipers work.  I think I have stock rears if you want to restore. The cab is good condition for coming from Penna. Dash uncut and complete, drivers floor has had some repair, passenger floor needs repair, engine cover good. No rust around rain gutter, front corners some dents, rear corners need repair, but not that bad. Doors straight, but rust at bottoms. Winshield good, small wiper blade scratch in upper left corner. Back glass, vent glass good, plexaglass in both doors. Bed complete and straight, but rust in stake pockets. Stakes all there, one slightly bent, one rusted at bottom. Wood under bed is all there in good shape, gas tank is good, and rear weight is still there. I bought this rare little truck to restore because I thought it would be a reasonably easy one to complete, plus it was un-cut and all there. I have another FC ahead of this one to restore,have recently bought a MCI motorhome conversion, and a diesel Scout, so i’m letting this project go. Call 302-381-0959 with any questions, and I will do my best to answer them.”

It’s not perfect, but the price sure is good.

It sure looks like it has been sitting.

“This 1958 Willys FC150 cab over engine stake bed jeep has been sitting for a few years.
It is not running now, but it is not mechanically broke. It is a 12 speed with a PTO. It has reversed rims for stability, and could be a good workhorse for someone, or show jeep. The jeep is located in San Ramon, and you have to call to see it. It is a FC150. I’ve priced it to sell because I need the space.

UPDATE: Was priced at $4000.  Thanks Alan!

(03/24/2010) It looks solid and complete.

“1960 Jeep Willys FC-150 cab forward control. 4-cylinder flat head. In running condition but needs to be refurbished or restored.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

The body is a bit rough, but plenty of parts on this no reserve FC.

“60’s Jeep FC150 complete, yet not running.  Been sitting since 1975, has bad tranny.  Bill of Sale only. Snow plow assembly already sold.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This seller must sell a variety of trucks, including this FC and a soon to be listed 1965 Willys Jeep FC170 DRW.

“1957 Willys FC150 4 cyl. 3 spd. 4X4. First off I am going through a divorice and I have to sell most of my trucks. The starting bid is what I can get for it as scrap. There is NO RESERVE. I hope that doesn’t happen. If in the event I don’t sell the truck, I will take it apart and scrap the shell. So if you see a part you need, let me know when the auction is over.

I regret that I must sell my trucks. This is a 57 FC150 that runs good, all the 4X4 works, has lock out hubs, electric fuel pump, GM alternator, and already has 11″ brakes installed on the front. I have 11″ backing plates and 1 drum for the rear that are included. The cab needs some some work. The bed is really good shape for one of these trucks. They are usually the hardest part to find. The 65 FC150 I will be listing later has a bed, but not as nice as this one. The windshield is cracked, but a good one is included. Also included with this truck is a complete 4 spd. set up for an FC150, 2 original gas tanks, a whole rear half of a cab, a whole front half of a cab, 2 doors for parts and a rear frame section that has a counterweight and mounting brackets. The rear cab section is good for patches for the lower cab corners. I have an early cab heater that is included, but it is pieces. The 2 brown seats in the pictures are included. If I think of anything else I will add it. I have a clear title. I have engines, transmissions, transfercases, rears if someone needs parts. I will add a link to Photobucket for more pictures. If you would like additional pictures, just send me your email address. If you have any questions please ask. I encourage anyone interested to come look at the truck. I work nights and am available during the day.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200

(09/03/2010) This appears in good shape, but I can’t quite tell how good.

“1963 Willys F 170 4X4 6 cylinder, runs great, good shape”

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was $3100

(03/23/2010) It should run once the carb is cleaned.

“This is an incredable find! This FC150 is a wide track 79″ wheelbase with all the hard to find parts…gas tank, tail gate, windshield, original seats, exterior cab lights. Has a new battery. The engine is a 1963 Ford 170 straight 6 and turns over freely. Once the carburator is cleaned, it should fire right up. ”

UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was on eBay.

(08/21/2010) “Here is one of the rarest Jeeps out of my collection, and by far the most original un-restored complete Jeep, a 1959 FC170 with the 9 foot bed option.  Original paint, never been repainted.  Paint has great patina and shows age of the Jeep.  Two owners, complete and fully documented ownership history, including the original dealership bill of sale.  I went through this Jeep and made everything work.  Original engine needed spark plugs and a tune up and a new generator.  I found an original era correct generator.  Everything on the Jeep is original, the interior is complete, seat upholstery is original, the running gear is refurbished and works as it should, including the engine, the 3 speed manual, the transfer-case, 4 wheel drive, axles, diffs, all in good running condition.  I cleaned and re-sealed the tank and rebuild the sending unit.  This Jeep drives real nice, and everything works, the heater, all the electrical, the turn signals, lights.  Complete with original headliner, original door panels, original sun visors, and a few rare items like a vinyl cigarette box holder attached to the visor. The stencil “Jeep” and “4 Wheel Drive” insignias on the tailgate are original. The tires are original old stock, most likely the second set, dating early 60’s. A true survivor, this Jeep spent 90% of her life in one family, who owned a RV business in a small town in Washington State. The Jeep was mostly used to plow occasional snow on the RV lot, otherwise the Jeep parked in the dry.  The body is completely stock and original, no accidents, no rust with the exception of pitting and surface rust on rear fender flares and surface rust on the bed floor.  Because it is so original I never had plans to repaint or frame-off restore this Jeep, I always loved the original condition it is in. I just made everything work properly, with the goal to avoid any modern upgrades or parts replacements that are not era correct.  This Jeep drives real nice, it breaks properly, shifts nicely and the engine sounds very healthy.  This FC170 is a true survivor.  Your chance to own a piece of Jeep history. The Black/Yellow California plates are not original, they are new personalized DMV issue and I painted them to the correct colors. The license plate does read “59FC170″ and is included in this sale. I added the vintage ’59 Texas truck plates for looks, this Jeep was never registered in Texas.  Original West Coast Jeep all her life!  The rare Texas plates are also part of the sale. The snow plow mechanism works, but I do not have the plow blade.  This Jeep, like all my other Jeeps listed for sale on Ebay, has valid and current California Registration, new tags good through 2011.  The title is clear and in my name.  I have collected Jeeps for many years, and I am selling a number of rare Jeeps out of my collection.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3450.

The seller also has a FC-150, though it doesn’t appear to be for sale.

“VERY good body, and as you can see… original tailgate stenciling is still alive and well! Engine (Original) has been started but will need rings at least. A “plus” as is if you have mosquito issues. If you’re not in the mood to rebuild… A perfect engine swap is the 60 degree V-6 Chev found in tons of S-10 pick-ups and other. They’re all over the place and they fit under the “dog house” without modifications to the sheet metal.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,500.

UPDATE:  Gordon points out that a “Crummy” is a term for a forest worker truck, typically a “six-pack” crew cab or a suburban or van type vehicle.

“Collector item 1959 Jeep w “Crummy Cab” Forward control original USFS rig. They only made about a 1000 of these. 86000 original miles. Great wood truck too. Needs work but runs.”
