1963 FC-170 Louisville, KY BAT

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

Chad shared this auction. The Bring-A-Trailer bid as of this writing is $11,500. I’m a bit floored by that bid, as the paint isn’t perfect and there are some dings in the metal.

“This 1963 Jeep Forward Control 170 (FC-170) was recently acquired by the Kentucky-based selling dealer from its previous owner in Georgia. Power comes from a 226ci Super Hurricane inline-six paired to a 3-speed manual gearbox. The vehicle had been used as a daily driver, and the prior owner installed locking hubs, a new exhaust system, auxiliary gauges, new tail lights, a new fuel tank, carburetor, air cleaner assembly, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, and much more as detailed below. Three months ago, the seller also fitted new period-correct wheels and new tires, re-wired the headlights, and added a new fuel pump, spark plugs, coil, and distributor. The four-wheel-drive system is claimed to work well, and this Jeep is now being offered with a receipt for the seller’s recent service, along with a clean Kentucky title.”

1951 Wagon Albuquerque, NM $10,000

This doesn’t run at the moment. Sure looks like an unrestored gem that would clean up nicely.

“I am selling a 1951 Willy’s Wagon for sale. This is a very clean vehicle. Must see to appreciate. I have not had it running in awhile, but it did run years ago. Very low original miles. Asking $10,000, but will consider all reasonable offers. Thanks for looking!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.

(01/10/2018) Craig shared this one. Seller listed it as a 2A, but it says on the serial plate that it’s a 3A. I would recommend bringing shovel so you can dig it out of the snow!

Dave writes that he picked up this boat marine inboard exhaust manifold. The former owner said he tried to google it, but could find no information. It came off a Jeep mb motor. Anyone recognize it?
