UPDATE: **SOLD** Was auctioned for $17,500.
Blaine shared this Bring-A-Trailer auction for a nice looking FC-170. I love the old school washer bag hanging from the dash. I have an OEM foot actuated bag in Patterson, but don’t have pics at the moment; instead, here are pics of the Allstate washer bag that came with Patterson.

“This 1963 Jeep FC-170 is finished in two-tone red and white over beige vinyl and is powered by a 226ci Super Hurricane inline-six paired with a three-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. The truck is equipped with a bed-mounted spare, a hydraulic plow frame, and a rear-mounted winch. The selling dealer acquired the truck in 2017, and service during their ownership included an oil change and replacement of the brake lines as well as the rear brake drums and hardware. This Kaiser-built Jeep Forward Control is now offered in Indiana with a clean Pennsylvania title.”
I’m pretty sure this is the same truck that was owned by long time FC expert Larry Munther. He had owned over 100 FC’S during his life and claimed that this was the cleanest one he had ever owned. (Historical trivia sure to impress friends far and wide)
Craig, I never tire of trivia!
The winning bid was $17,500. Someone got a great deal on that. I was expecting it would go for way more.
Thanks for the update Zach!
