Blaine spotted this narrow-track FC for sale. It’s listed as a 1960, but I suspect that’s just a place holder year. The seller supposedly has an interested buyer, but the ad is still up as of this morning.

“Came from an Estate Sale from a Farm in Eastern Oregon! Willy’s Forward Control in pretty good shape. Does have rust in drivers door and some above windshield on drivers side. Mostly surface rust on the rest. Truck is missing rear fenders and engine cover, all of which can be easily fabricated. Truck is complete with minimal rust and has original 4 cylinder engine and all running gear.
You dont see many of these up for grabs, and they are so cool! Asking $7500 OBO. Clean Title in Hand!”

UPDATE: This video is making the rounds on FB, again, so, I figured I’d repost it.

Original Post March 2017: Listed as a 1940s promotional film, the inclusion of CJ-5s and the exclusion of DJs and FCs suggests to me it was created in 1955. There’s an extended look at a cargo personnel carrier near the end of the video There are also a variety of specialized equipment and hardtops shown.

Not a bad price given the amount of work that’s been done. Still, it’s only a 2WD vehicle. It does have a good looking Kelly hardtop.

“$1,850 – Or Best Offer

For a 75-year-old trailer, this one is in pretty excellent shape. This is either a 1946 or 1947 Bantam T3-C 1/4 ton trailer. I’ve owned it for a couple of years now, with the intention to turn it into a overland like trailer.

I have an extra set of rims with military style tires, but all these tires need to be replaced, the rubber is pretty old on these. All the rims are in inner tube style rim as well. The bolt pattern is 5×5.5″ with a hub opening of a hair over 4.75.”

The only description is “rum”. Does it run on “rum”? Do you need “rum” to drive it?
