UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer

At the very least there appear to be some good parts here.

“Jeep (Willys) truck. Been sitting for a long time. I’ve done some research and found out these were built by Jeep (Willys) from 1956-1964 the models were FC150 & FC170. All were 4×4. Don’t no if it’s a FC150 or a FC170. Has motor, tranny and all the drive train, has everything. No clue if the motor could ever run again ( I would take an educated guess and say probably NOT). I will say it again IT HAS BEEN SITTING A LONG TIME. The interior is real rough. Some windows are broke out but some are’nt. It’s some what rare from what I’ve been able to find out.”

1945 Flattie Portland, OR $700

October 14, 2012 • CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, GPW (Ford MB) • TAGS: . This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
0

UPDATE:  Price dropped to $700.

(09/05/2012) This was a 1945 GPW, but it now has a CJ-2A body and some other mods, including some Desert Dogs.

“$700 OBO.  The value here is in the parts. It does not run and will take a lot to get it running.
It pretty much needs everything gone through or rebuilt to get it street worthy again.

The Jeep is titled as a 45 Ford Jeep, but it doesn’t look like there is much left of a 45.
Body is 2A, frame is 48 or newer.

This was going to be a project but just too much for me to tackle. The motor has two cylinders that are rusty and I don’t have the
time or resources to pull the motor and rebuild it. There are some good parts on this Jeep that someone will want.

MB Grill
T 84 Transmission (Needs Rebuilt)
WW2 water pump undrilled
WW2 carb (maybe)

Buyer must take it all. I will not part it out. Trades considered, unless I get too many calls with people offering me garbage…..

Call or text Dan at five zero three – 380 – nine three six six”

My ‘New’ FC-150s

October 13, 2012 • CATEGORIES: Features, toys This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
3

I have been meaning to get a couple FC toys so that the next time I show up at a FC event I can be an official FC owner, even if they are FC-minis.  A couple weeks ago I finished up eWillys early, so I trolled through a variety of FC toys on eBay.  I came across two low priced, imperfect Corgie FC-150s out of the UK that would fit my minimal budget. I figured if I bid on a couple of them I’d walk away with at least one of them.  Instead, I guess no one else wanted them.  Thus, I ended up with two FCs.

These toys are a nice heavy weight metal, much heavier than I thought they would be. In fact, they feel heavier than some of the plastic Tonka toys I’ve seen.  Both toys could use some TLC, but I think I’ll keep them just the way they are.

Here’s an example of how the FC w/ the conveyer belt ought to look like.  Mine works, but the conveyer belt is missing.

Here are some more Corgi Jeep Toys on Flickr, too.  Apparently, Corgi made all kinds of vehicles.  A wide variety of Corgi vehicles have been photographed and placed on Flickr.
