1963 FC-150 Elgin, TX **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: FC150-FC170-M677 • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

This needs assembly (drivetrain removed) and some work.

“This is a rare cab-over style Forward Control Jeep with a 2.3 liter F-head 4-cylinder engine, 3-speed T-90 manual transmission, and two-speed T-18 transfer case. I have a clear Texas title in my name. These unusual trucks draw a lot of attention.

The engine and transfer case have seen no use since being rebuilt and they are out of the vehicle, along with the gearbox (in other words, the truck is not drivable as is). Radiator is rebuilt. This truck was sold new in the Phoenix, AZ area and remained there with the original owner’s family (they owned the Jeep dealership) until I brought it to central Texas nearly six years ago, so body corrosion is minimal. Brakes are rebuilt with no miles on them. All window glass is good. Comes with new hoses, wiring harness, clutch, pressure plate, brakes, an alternator with conversion kit brackets, and the following extra items: a pair of doors in good condition, rear window glass, a bare cylinder head, an extra disassembled 3-speed gear box, vacuum brake servo, extra rebuilt generators, an extra starter motor, and various extra pieces of trim and small mechanical items. (more info on eBay)”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

This looks complete enough from the front that it might be a decent candidate for a restoration.

1974 CJ-6 Prunedale, Ca **STATUS UNKNOWN**

• CATEGORIES: CJ-6 • TAGS: , This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE:  Price dropped to $6000

(06/30/2012) Here’s a nicely restored former Forest Service CJ-6.

“1974 Jeep Cj6 with 304V8
This Jeep is a barn find that I picked up when I lived in GA a few years ago. This CJ6 is a former US Forest Service vehicle so it is a rare survivor. The jeep sat in a barn for over 20 years and I repaired alot of things to get her on the road. All of the parts that I used were stock or NOS when I could get them. The only items that are not stock is the 2.5 inch lift springs and the 33×9.5 BFG All Terrains.
I have spare engine, axles, and many other parts that will go with the Jeep. This is prime canadate for someone to own a piece of history that will only go up in value.
email me with questions or for more photos”
