UPDATE: **Status Unknown** It was listed on eBay, but didn’t sell through eBay. May have sold locally.
Doesn’t run at the moment. Seller messed with the points. Has a unique interior.
“Greetings, you are bidding on my 1958 Willys Forward Control 170 pick up. First, I know very little about anything mechanical, I bought this jeep out of a jeep collection in Houston, Texas. I have owned it for approx. one year. It has seen light work on my farm and was running fine until I decided to replace the points, distributor, spark plug wires, etc. It has not run since, my jeep friends seem to think the points are not set correctly. I don’t have the time to mess with it and more and it is taking up space in my barn. Tires are non-directional military and have good trend left gas gauge and heat gauge have never worked. Headlight, taillights and blinkers work, heater works.”
Seems like an hour with a mechanic would make this worth quite a bit more.
I’m skeptical on this one. He’s asking $7k, but can’t take it to a mechanic or get his “Jeep friends” to trace down the spark plug wires and set the ignition timing?
Still for sale???
CJ,
Looks like the eBay listed was cancelled by the seller. It’s unclear whether it sold or not. I’ve updated the post.

Is this FC still available? Sounds like it could use some work. At a decent price I would be interested. Been looking for something like this for a while.
You may contact me by email. Thanks
How do I get in touch with you directly. I do not see any email information for you other than connecting thru this forum. I will be happy to phone you. You can email me directly at back9ranch@gmail.com.
Thanks
This FC was first listed on eBay, but didn’t sell on eBay. It may have sold locally. At this point I don’t have any more information on whether it is for sale or not. If I receive more information or see it listed again on Craigslist or eBay, I’ll let the interested parties on this comment thread know.

You still have the jeep for sale
