FC-170 spotted in Ossipee, NH

Here’s a good looking FC-170 Glenn found.

Glenn writes, “Was out roaming in NH yesterday looking at a DJ3A.  Happened by Ryan’s Garage in Center Ossipee, NH and spotted this freshly done FC170, a real sharp job.  Around the parking lot was several other Willys pickups along with another FC donor.  Sorry I didn’t get a front shot, but what you don’t see just to the left of the pix is a vey large, loud, chained dog.  Nobody came out to tell us differently, so we stayed right in the car.  Maybe some of the locals can tell us more.  This is SNOW country and these FC models didn’t last long up here.”

1953 M-38A1 Lake, MI $4000

• CATEGORIES: M-38A1 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This needs another motor installed, but comes with a second.

“I’m selling my 1953 Willy’s jeep, body and drive train are on outstanding condition. The only problem with the Willy’s is that it needs a motor rebuild. Comes with two motors, two trans, two tranfercases. I payed 6,000 for the jeep, taking 2,000 off for the seized motor. Great deal! Please only respond if truly interested. I bought the xtra motor to fix this one. The trans and transfercase are exra. The reason for the engine problems was the oil pick up was clogged and I seized a rod to crank. I do not want to get rid of the beautiful pice of American history but my family come first. Please call me at 9896154327.”

Transporting Jeeps via Plane

• CATEGORIES: Features, Magazine, Old Images • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The August 03, 1942, issue of Life Magazine has an article about Transport Planes. The article includes photos of some GPWs. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t want to be wedged in there next to the jeep during a bumpy flight!

You can see the entire article at Google Books

There is a copy of this issue on eBay as well.

1964 Kristi Snow Cat Model KT-4G

• CATEGORIES: Features, Other 4x4s, Unusual • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Paul found this unique snow cat made from Kaiser parts. It appears to me to be a CJ-5 body with hardtop combined with a custom FC-looking cowl (with some buck teeth as a grille). There were only two KT-4G models made.

According to the Kristi Snowcat website, “This new vehicle, named the KT-4G, was designed with the aim to reduce costs by maximizing use of standard automotive parts. Kaiser Jeep supplied the CJ-series universal frame and body, while power was delivered by a Chevrolet 6-cylinder engine mated to a Clark four-speed transmission and steering differential. The new Chevrolet engine was water-cooled, allowing for a car-like heating system.”
