Doesn’t run.

“Rare Jeep FC-170, complete truck, but realize this is a project, I pulled it out of a field in Kansas this last April, where it sat for 22 years. I have a title but it is a Kansas title in the original owners name. The truck has some questionable body work(Bondo) but it is all there. IT DOES NOT RUN NOR DOES IT HAVE BRAKES. The original 6 cyl motor is free and with some gas and a battery it should start, as the carb has been rebuilt, has new wires and plugs, and fresh oil. I have the original Jeep Rims and other parts that will go with it. I lost interest in this and just would like to move it along, price is negotiable but don’t make any offers with out coming to look at it, Cash only!! ”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was For Trade.

It’s a project.

“I’ve got this cool old truck ive been tinkering on for a year now. Ive replaced various things and though it runs good when it runs, i just can’t get it right. Its got lots of rust and some body damage but all the parts are there except for the bed. Original gas tank was hopeless so it’s running off a fuel cell. Its got 2 inch wheel spacers to accommodate the larger tires but still have the original rims. Its a one ton.
This truck would make a really cool hunting rig or just something to drive around in the mountains if you want to put the work into it. It IS a project. They’re quite rare. Have clean title in hand.

Id like to trade this for a good running 3/4 ton or better truck.
The bigger the better, needs to pull a travel trailer. Im open to an suv or even a van if its heavy and in good shape.
I don’t know what the truck’s worth but i dont want to trade for anything with major issues. I don’t mind something ugly. Just depends what it’s worth to you. Please send pics. Thanks for reading.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

It needs a new master cylinder, but could be worth a look.

“Amazing and Cute head turning pickup truck .This rare 1961 Willys Jeep Fc 150 for sale. I have owned this truck for 28 years and am forced to sell. It has a Buick 225 v6 engine, Three speed transmission. not a rust bucket.Current tags and registration. runs well but needs master cylinder work ( brand new part but not kept filled with fluid ) common problem when jeep is not driven. No front wheel drive differential was removed for larger engine. This was my baby and has custom radiator work to prevent overheating. Way worth restoring FC150s are bringing great prices at auctions. Please dont contact me with low ball offers I am not interested in giving the truck away.”

“Great old classic Willys cab over FC170 Forward Control for sale. These old trucks are getting extremely hard to find in any condition, let alone with all the body panels, bed, and tailgate. This one was pretty well taken care and has you can see from the pics, still has a lot of potential to restore into a nice old rig.

The body is better than most of them you will find. Sheet metal is fairly straight with exception of drivers door. The bed sides are pretty solid and the bed floor only has minor rot, not shot like most of them. The floors have been patched but the seat pans are mostly solid with a few holes but hold my 240lb rear just fine. The windshield surround only has surface rust and not rotted out like most.

Runs.

“Rare 1959 FC 170 Willys Jeep Truck came from California. Rare to find in this condition! Very old! Red/ white Truck does come with the box. The box is in fair condition with some surface rust but no holes. The pictures show that this truck has rust just on drivers corner and small spot on very front of the cab! Project truck.

Started right up after first try. Runs a little rough but it does run. Decided not to take on this project on due to too many others. Purchased new U- Joints, new water pump, and a new alternator comes with the truck but these have not been replaced or installed! Has new electric fuel pump installed, new oil in the rear and in front ends. I have removed soft plugs, water pump and radiator off the truck but still have them.

Invested much more than starting price already. Shipping is buyers responsibility and buyer to pay all costs. Prefer local pick up!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9,500.
