HOT POST! This may not even be available by the time I can get this post out the door! FC stuff moves pretty quickly.

FC170 really it’s parts of one. But not horrible and priced to move bring cash and hope you already have your trailer hooked up!

Cab lights are way cool, lots of interior parts there.

Seller’s Description 

For sale or possibly trade

1962 jeep FC 170 drw

I have a clear oh title

It still has the hurricane flathead 6 engine

And transmission bellhousing.

Front axle, steering, front driveshaft

Cooling system all still there. Missing trans transfer case and rear axle

Frame is rough behind the cab

Glass is all in good shape, interior is pretty complete. I have both seats in great shape.

It did still run a couple years ago before the transmission was removed for another project. Definitely could be restored, or buy it for parts. Price negotiable open to trade

Hi all, Dave here. Yes, I’m still alive and breathing! Actually, I’m quite rested!

I recently bought a few cool items off eBay, so Tim said I could those items with you. I’ve got a couple brochures and a couple early Kaiser Willys Newspapers to post over the next week or so.

I should also mention that my eye surgery last week was successful, to the point that I now have 20/15 eye sight (an improvement from 20/200). It is SO awesome to be able to see again. Also, I can now see my computer screen now, which had become difficult by early November.  I do have some excess floaters, which I hope will dissipate using a nutritional plan based on this Irish study; I figure there’s little to lose by trying it.

Just after Christmas we sold our breeder cows. By sold, I mean we traded future wrapped pork, plus a summer cow, which worked for both parties. So, I no longer have to deal with the cold and cows. We will still have a two or three summer cows, which means we will get them in the spring and butcher them in the fall.

Finally, I find myself involved with a French documentary crew who is making a documentary about my great great uncle Henry Farny, the western painter. I’ve become a liaison for them here in the US and they’ve asked me to participate, which might have be visiting Wyoming and/or Cincinnati in May, so I might even be able to make it out to the Willys Reunion (we’ll see how things go)! I am also thinking this might help springboard on a trip to Europe, but we’ll see (as they are filming in France and Germany, too).

Ann and I saw this Henry Farny painting in 2011 while it still hung at my great uncle Farny Eilers’ place in Connecticut. Painted in 1911, I’d estimate it was 5’x3′ at least? Sadly, I learned this week, it was auctioned after his death and now resides in Alabama. The frame’s label indicated it was called “The Good Old Times”, though an Alabama article does not mention the name at all.
