UPDATE:  **SOLD** Was  $1000

There’s only one pic, but I don’t see any major rust.  This might be a good deal.

“1960 Willys FC170 – Rare Project Truck – Runs but needs throttle cable. Only reason I am selling is to repair transmission on other truck.”

The rust doesn’t look all that bad.  This might be a decent price for it.

“This is a 1957 jeep fc 150. its all original but has some things missing and a little rust. things missing that i noticed are the distributar and speedometer. the passenger door is damage but could be fixed by a body guy, some rust but will be surface only and could all be taken off when sandblasted, nothing that bad, i would suggest removing the bed and cab to go through it, these trucks are very easy to pull apart. its got the original engine and was running about ten years ago. most of the parts are willy’s jeep and can be bought still through local dealers. the seats are there and there’s a few extra heads in the bed. i noticed a bunch of spare parts in the bed, i will get an inventory soon. call me if your interested, ill try to answer any questions, erik, 916-218-9187, $ is negotiable and i will deliver it!!…”

(10/01/09) It’s a bit rough.

“1957 Willys Jeep forward control. has Ford v-8 runs needs plugs wires, rotor. body is rust free and fairly straight. $2500.00.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** No Price Listed

“1960’s era Jeep FC-150 (Forward Control) restoration project or parts vehicle. 4cyl OHV, manual trans, hydraulic dump, aux hydraulics, plow mount, single wheel rear axle, many parts interchange with FC 170’s. I can transport vehicle within a 50 mile radius for a small fee. I also have a 1983 Jeep CJ-7 with a small block Chevy 350, 4spd manual trans, hardtop, plow mount, in “need” of restoration or good parts vehicle. Both vehicles ran and are complete, though in “need” of restoration.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

There’s dents and some rust. Interestingly, despite the increase in flatties, Forward Controls continue to be difficult to find.

“I have a 1957 FC-150 Willys Jeep. New tires with spacers, new carburator,bed has been resently sand blasted and powder coated. Vehicle runs is driveable but need some work. New fuel pum, shocks, brakes comes with some extra parts.Price not set in stone, pictures available. Engine cover in bed of truck to show original engine.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. It’s got a low starting bid.  Check out the video, but be patient as it took a while to load.

“1960 WILLY’S JEEP F150 FORWARD CONTROL 4WD. Perfect for restoration this jeep was in use until 1996. Odometer reads 24,766. When I acquired this truck a few months ago it ran great for a few days, would start right up, plenty of power and very little smoke. Then it died and before I realized the fuel pump diaphragm went I messed around with the carb. Here is a link to a 11 mg video of the Jeep in great running condition that you can download with my 12 year old son running it through our back field.”

It looks like there’s some typical rust around the bottom of the door. Otherwise, looks good.

“This is one of jeep’s stranger creatures to be sure. it has 4 wheel drive with lockouts, a p.t.o. to power a cylinder which lifts the flatbed, very heavy leaf springs and 5.38 gearing in the diffs. drivetrain is a 6 cylinder flathead that runs good . tranny is a 3 speed manual this truck needs wood for the bed and various other details to be driven. truck has a good title .”
