Doug spotted this CJ-5. It doesn’t run, but there’s value in it.

“For sale is an older CJ jeep. I’m not to sure on what the exact year is but it has the rare dauntless V6 which was only available from 66-71. It does not currently run but the engine turns over and the transmission shifts through all the gears. The body is in OK condition, but has its share of rust due to its age. The frame is in really good condition. Everything seems to be there to make it a running Jeep. It also has a winch on the front and PTO with gearbox reduction on the back, they are both Ramsey brand.”

Roberto Flores let me know that British singer Dame Vera Lynn’s birthday was on the 20th of March. She had some experience in jeeps during the war. Given the number of men surrounding her in the jeeps, she was very popular. I particularly like the guy with the hat and mustache in photo 2.

12th Annual FC Roundup March 27-29th

UPDATE: Don’t forget that next weekend is the FC Roundup. We’d planned on attending, but had to change our plans this week.

The 2015 Jeep FC Roundup will be held March 27-29. Unfortunately, one great FC guy who won’t be able to attend is Troy Fry, who passed away in September. You might remember the amazing work Troy did on his orange and white FC (check out his build photos here). He was an all-around nice guy and will be missed.

If you have any questions about this year’s Roundup, email Jesse Ybarra at m677@cs.com.

1957 Truck and 1962 Tow Truck Antioch, IL **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Willys Trucks • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

This auction is for two trucks. The ’57 is apart, but has a title, while the tow truck doesn’t have a title.

“Auction is for a 1957 Willys Pickup, with clear title, that is in pieces however you will receive at no additional cost a Really cool Willys Pickup/Tow Truck. This is a project that needs some finishing touches however most of the heavy lifting is already done. Pretty solid however the cab has had some repairs that are less than perfect. Serial number for the Tow Truck is 55268 70575. Most of what I did was major mechanical…new timing chain and gears, new electronic distributor, rebuilt carburetor, new clutch and pressure plate with turned flywheel, new speedometer cable.

* used some parts from a 1957 pickup that will also be included in the sale, specifically the T-90 trans and cross member as well as the wiper motor. Truck runs great, clutch is smooth as silk. Needs new front windshield, tail lights and other minor finishing touches. This is as close to original as it gets…she isn’t fast and drives like she’s 50 years old but it is really cool. You will receive clear title for the 1957 and all remaining parts from the 57..cab, frame, axles, etc. The Ramsey pto isn’t hooked up but is included as well as the drive shaft to the winch. Front pusher bumper and plow included. The plow pump needs an adjustment to the check valve as it doesn’t always stay up. You will also receive a brand new radiator and plastic gas tank however the ones in the truck are fine. Buyer could use the Tow Truck as parts Truck to refurbish the 1957…just a thought.”

Runs and drives. Is a very early FC.

“For sale 1957 Willys Jeep Forward Control FC-150 4X4 cab over pickup truck. I bought this original Fc-150 over ten years ago with the intention of restoring it. I simply have too many projects to get around to it. It has been stored indoors every since I bought it. The Jeep will run and drive but I stopped driving it due to the poor condition of the tires and brakes. Includes spare sheet metal parts including lower cab corners, spare door, remains of the original bed and more. This is the lowest known serial number on the Forward Control Registry! This is a rare model Jeep and I had to go to New Hampshire to get this one. I will only sell it to someone that has the plans and the means to restore it. If you want to build a swamp buggy go find an old wrangler! There is some rust in the lower cab corners but nothing that cannot be fixed. Get real this truck is 58 years old and is a project! The rest of the cab including the rain gutters are in good condition. I have a Florida little for it. I hate to see it go but I will only sell it to someone who is gone actually restore it…. Not stick it in a field to rot away or butcher it up… I’d rather keep it!”
