1960 FC-170 New Hampshire **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price

This lacks a title.

1960-fc170-nh1 1960-fc170-nh2 1960-fc170-nh3 1960-fc170-nh4

“I have a jeep FC 170 that I picked up with the intention of giving new life.
Sadly, too much life and too many projects have thwarted my intentions.
It was in rough shape when I got it and I haven’t touched it since I unloaded it some years ago. It is a serious undertaking if you were to try to bring this back to life, lots of rust and I don’t believe the engine is reusable though I don’t know that for certain.
I’d like to try to find it a home where it gets some sort of use before its no good to anyone. I wish I had been able to get to it myself.
I’m not sure on the value honestly. That is something I would happily discuss with a seriously interested party. They are tough to find but this one is rough, sadly.
I don’t have a title. It would come with a Bill of Sale, in NH, ME that and a vin verification are all that’s needed to reg to it wasn’t a problem for me. It looks like it was last registered in 2005 in VT.
I’m happy to answer questions but seeing it in person is going to give you the most info I think.
Thanks.”

The Story of The Legend

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Blaine shared Jeep’s take on the history of the jeep. Of course, the company continues to ignore the importance of Bantam and Ford’s role in the origination of the jeep. One of the odd decisions was to select a photo of a 5 lug DJ-3A as representative of the DJ-3A. The history does include a mention of the DJ-5s and CJ-6s, so that’s good to see.

Also, a blurb about the CJ-6 claims the running gear was heavier duty, but as far as I know, the CJ-6 used the Dana 27 and Dana 44. Am I correct on that?
