UPDATE: Was $600. **Status Unknown**
Seller has other FC parts coming up for sale, too.
“ picked up this 1961 Willys FC170 truck in December to use the cab for a custom “Patina Rod” project I’m working on (build thread here: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/jeep-non-hardcore/1558953-jeep-fc170-patina-rod-mutt.html). I have since bought — as a “package deal” — several FC150s and FC170s, and will be using one of those for my project instead.
I do *not* have a title for this truck. The cab is rough, but has GREAT patina and vintage/retro “Dan’s Snowplowing” graphics (the truck had been parked in the St. Ignace area for decades, it appears). The closed-knuckle Dana 44 front and Dana 53 rear axles are locked up (brake drums, I’m certain), and the frame is thin in some areas. This is most likely a “parts truck” more so than a “restore candidate”. That being said, the cab could be fixed by someone with the right skills.
The glass is all in-tact, with the exception of the driver window being cracked. The (rare) windshield is in-tact, but has some scratches from the wiper arms, and a small stone chip (I believe a local glass place could repair both). There are only one or two companies in the U.S. that offer windshields (about $480 shipped). Both door windows roll up & down well.
The engine, transmission & transfer case are still in the vehicle, but haven’t run for years…condition is unknown.
Buy this whole rare Jeep for $600, or make an offer on parts (I’d prefer to sell complete). I will have several other FC parts/vehicles available very soon.”
Yeah, this is my truck. I have several FC150s and FC170s, rolling frame, cabs, etc. coming this weekend (5/31-6/1), and will be sorting through parts then! : )
