1957 FC-150 Larimore, ND $1000

This is a project.

“Here is your next project.

1957 Jeep FC150. This will need a TOTAL restoration and will need to be towed.

It has the 134 Hurricane 4 cylinder and is 4 wheel drive. I was told the engine ran and it looks to be complete (and not stuck).

Needs extensive body work, Drivers side rear lug nuts have all broken off, so will need new studs to roll. (have a fork lift available to help load onto your trailer)

The frame and drive train all look like they are in good shape. I do have some extra parts that go with it like a spare dash and instrument cluster, spare heater, brake controls with master cylinder, clutch pedal assembly, a few glass pieces.

This project is not for the faint of heart, but when done, it will be a head turner! I get comments on it sitting in my shop all the time!

I need the space in my shop. I am putting it on here for a few days and if it does not sell within this time frame, I am going to pull the ad and move it back to my house and slowly work on it when I have the time. I have too many projects that take priority over this one so I would really like to see this go to someone who is going to be able to put the work into it rather than let it sit.

I do not NEED to sell it, so fairly firm on the price with only a little room to negotiate. (no offers for half of asking price).

I would be willing to consider a trade for an inverter type TIG welder with high frequency start that can weld aluminum or a large media blasting pot with deadman controls. Might consider a trade for guns.

It has the keys and a clear title.

$1000 or best REASONABLE offer. As I said, if it does not sell, I will put it in my garage at the house and let it sit until I can get the time to work on it. I am taking a loss at my asking price.

There are not many of these around anymore. Now is your chance to own a piece of Jeep history!

Email with any questions or to set up a time to take a look at it.”

A FC Roundup of my own — My First Ride in a Forward Control

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

As I mentioned a couple days ago, the FC Round up was this weekend in Arizona.  Well, I didn’t have time to make it down there.  But, that didn’t stop me from having a FC Round Up of my own.

A reader asked me to check out a Forward Control for sale about 45 minutes north of me.  I had some time today, so I drove out to meet with the seller, Daryl, who was awfully nice and very informative.

Well, it turns out Daryl didn’t just have 1 FC, he had 5:  2 FC-170s, an FC-170 DRW, an FC-170 with an expertly extended frame and aftermarket Dually setup, and an FC-150.  Daryl had a story about each one and pointed out some things I didn’t know.  Daryl and his son developed an interest in them a few years ago, brought them home, and hope to get working on them soon.

The nicest one, which Daryl has for sale, runs and drives, so he took me for a ride.  It was the first ride in an FC for me and, hopefully, not the last! We cruised up the road a bit, then cruised back. I had hoped to take a video, but the video on my phone stopped working (turns out it was operator error, but I didn’t figure that out until later).

He said he didn’t mind if I posted a few pictures, so here they are.  Thanks for a fun afternoon Daryl!

Here’s a shot of their collection:

Here’s an FC-170 that was used for years by a farmer to feed his cattle.  But he had a problem, how could he stand on the back of the FC and toss the hay off the back and drive at the same time?  His solution was his custom auto pilot contraption. He would get the Jeep going, attached his ‘auto pilot’ and then climb into the back and throw out hay as he drove along.

This FC-170 DRW has a racheting system to raise and lower the spare tire. I don’t remember ever coming across other FCs with that.  Unfortunately, it was hard to get a great shot of this.

1963 FC-150 Long Beach, Ca $1400

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

UPDATE:  Price dropped to $1400.  A reader took a look at this and gave the following report: There was no documentation on the Chevrolet drive train components. It supposedly has a rebuilt 350, with AT and has a GM rear end of some kind.  Front diff appears stock. Cab is decent outside. with some pinhole rust. Glass appears good except for drivers door.  Inside of cab is trashed.  No seats. No cover. No air cleaner on engine. Carb is full of dust, bugs and whatever, so it certainly does not appear that the engine has been taken care of.  Bed looks useable, with. some rust on flat panels but restorable.  Owner said he had a title, but he could not produce it the day I was there.

(05/25/2010) This is still a project.
