“Willys–1957 FC 150. Forward Control cab over engine pickup. Rare 4 wheel drive cabover pickup with Buick v-6, T-98 four speed with Warn overdrive and a Koenig PTO winch. Even rarer with no rust issues! One just sold on another website for over $25,000 and it was and original 4 cylinder (75 hp versus 135 hp), only a 3 speed and no winch. My reserve is much lower than that! Cool to drive around except that every time you stop someone has to ask “What is that? This was the first one I ever saw and had to buy it and I’ve only seen one since. This rare beauty includes:
Buick 198 V-6
T 98 four speed trans. with Warn Overdrive (16 forward gears!)

September 1964 Article on Testing the ‘Jeep’ Wagoneer from Trailer Life
November 27, 2019 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features, Magazine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.
UPDATE: According to the author in the 1964 Jeep News Vol. 10 No. 7, this article was published in the September 1964 issue of Trailer Life (I previously guess it was in 1963).
I bought a wagoner literature combo off ebay that included the “Test the ‘Jeep’ Wagoneer” excerpt from an unknown issue of Trailer Life Magazine that also included the early Wagoneer brochure on the post below this one. There are still two sets of these available for purchased the last time I checked.
The writer, Bruce Grantland, concluded that the Wagoneer was a new type of vehicle for towing, better suited to towing long distances in remote areas better than any other vehicle of the time.

This was purchased on eBay along with the Trailer Life excerpt showcased in the above post. To me, the art and color choices seem particularly good.
1944 Photo of German Sniper on Jeep on eBay

“as shown …. 7 x 9 .. … vintage original authentic press photo ( most are Army radiotelephoto from Acme Newspictures )
ON THE AXIOUS SEAT:
FRANCE — Perched on the radiator of a jeep, this worried German sniper in civilian clothes holds his neck as he rides to American headquarters after his capture near St. Sauveur Lendelin. There’s good reason for his frights, for under the rules of war he can be shot for sniping in civilian dress. 08/07/44).

“Guess what? I have been asked again to find another new owner for another new sweet ride! Sometimes I feel like I must be dreaming! I am guessing from the split windshield, marked Willys windshield frame and head that she is a 1946-1949 Willys.
This forgotten gem has plenty of original parts that include the head from the original motor, fenders, hood, grill, PTO, fuel pump, driveshafts, exhaust manifold, gauges, carburetor, fan and more!
The Jeep itself is in very restorable condition, minus the motor, but transmission is still in it! Tires hold air, but are very weather cracked. It appears that the floor had been replaced at one time. Rolls freely, will come with Bill of sale only, no title.
The pictures aren’t there best due to low lighting and shows in some pictures as it being yellow it is not, she is white. If you need additional photos please ask and I will do my best to get them. If you are reading this ad it is still for sale! I will not reply to anyone only asking is it still available. Asking $2600 or best reasonable offer. Cash only no trades! Vehicle is located in Beloit”
