1957 FC-170 Monticello, IL $3500

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

Greg’s selling this FC-170. It includes a set of Husky-manufactured Allstate-branded hubs. You can contact Greg at 217 417 1246.

“The remnants of lettering on the driver’s door indicate that this particular truck belonged to a bricklayer early in its life. I assume that the bricklayer bought this truck with the intent of installing the flat bed because adding the flat bed to the factory overload springs in the rear would have been ideal for hauling building materials. It also appears that they improved the roadability of this truck by replacing the original 4.88:1 gears in the axles with 4.27:1 gears that were available many years ago but have since been discontinued. Jeep enthusiasts agree that is why this truck has so many miles on it while other FC’s did not.

The manual locking hubs in this vehicle were obtained from Sears & Roebuck, which sold automobile parts in their catalogs from sometime in the 1950’s into the 1970’s.

In poking around the truck some, I have determined that it wore red and white paint at one point in time. Otherwise, it seems that a youngster got ahold of this truck, did an extremely poor job of installing a 4-inch lift kit, and promptly took this truck off-roading where they ran it up onto something. Whoever this was did an equally poor job of trying to replace the radiator and an even worse job of fixing the broken steering.

I have since replaced the sector shaft, pitman arm, drag link and bellcrank with the later, upgraded versions which I obtained from Harry and Jo at Midwest Willys. I also installed the shift plate underneath the cab while I had the shifter assembly out for new rubber bushings.

The truck does not run at this time. However, I have pulled in a new wiring harness from Walcks that I never finished installing. I still have the instructions for this harness and they will be included.

The truck is an ugly survivor with a broken rear window. All of the other glass is good and I put some used tires on it during the summer of 2021 as the old bias-ply tires finally gave up.

I hate to see it go, but, life seems to be taking a turn and I do not think I can give it the time, effort and attention that it deserves.

I am asking $3,500.00 and that is a firm price for an old beast that comes with a title.”

“1959 FC 170 flatbed Jeep truck. I have a clean title for the truck, the truck runs but needs a fuel pump and new wiring. Truck does run and I have drove it. It could use plug wires and points but it doesn’t knock or have and internal noise. Has a new radiator core. $3000 and does not come with original wheels. I have other wheels that I can put on the truck. If you want the original wheels then the price is $3700 because original 16 inch Jeep wheels are hard to come by in good condition and these wheels are nice.I have videos of the truck on my YouTube channel Red Clay Traveler if you want to see it running. If you buy both the FC 170 and the FC 150 I have for sale then the price is 5000 for both trucks.”

“1957 FC 150 cab over Jeep Truck. $6000 obo. Truck runs and will need a radiator core replacement or a new radiator. The truck is complete and even has the counter weight still under the bed. This is the first year production of the FC 150 and is a narrow track model. Extremely rare truck with a good windshield still in it, which is very hard to find. It’s the deluxe cab and has the extra windows in the cab. Truck has tons of bondo but has a solid frame! The truck is complete and the only thing I’m keeping are the original wheels, but I have another set to put on it. I have a couple videos showing it on my YouTube channel if you want to see it run and a better look. Channel is called Red Clay Traveler

1945? VEC? CJ-2A Greeneville, TN No Price

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This may be a VEC, but I don’t see anything to indicate it is a ’45. Most likely it is a 1946.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/279765317579038

“Thinking about selling my 45 Willy’s. I have owned it for about 8 years or so and I just don’t drive it. It has the original drivetrain and runs very good for its age. Anyway I just don’t have a clue what these things are worth these days. Would anyone mind sharing their opinion on the range that these things are going for these days? I am clueless and any help would be greatly appreciated”

1952? Flatfender Race Jeep Onalaska, WA $3000obo

• CATEGORIES: Racing This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

It appears this has some extra-wide axles which were adapted to the chassis with some steel tubing. Given how twisted the driver’s side front tub appears, along with the slight twist of the cage, suggests the frame might be twisted. It’s unclear how much value is here.

Jan 1976 Vintage Northeast 4WD Racing Newspaper

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old News Articles, Racing • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Happy May Day! Below are all the pages from this issue of the newspaper.

This unusual newspaper that popped up on eBay the other day. It was the seventh issue of the Northeast 4WD Racing News. There was no publish date, but one editorial puts this at roughly January 1976. It’s 14 pages published in a full-size newspaper format, so the pics are big! I’d love to see other copies if anyone knows of any (or knows how long this paper lasted).

(The images are extra large to allow folks to read the small text. Click on the image, then most likely you’ll need to click on it again to expand it to full size)

This is the front page:
