1959 FC-170 Walker, LA $35,000

This is a modified FC on a Wrangler drive train.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/730950493727448/posts/2599666620189150/

“1959 Jeep FC-170 Forward Control
This FC is sitting on an a ‘99 Wrangler drive train. 4.0 6cyl. Automatic transmission. Power steering. Power brakes. Power windows. Fuel injection. It will cruise at 75mph on the interstate. All the fun of having an FC but much more pleasant to drive. People love this truck!
One of a kind build. I have taken it on lengthy road trips with no issues. Electric fan. Sat for hours in cruising the coast traffic with no heat issues.
FWD works. All gauges work. All lights, signals, etc. work as they should.
It’s time to replace the wood for the bed. Otherwise in great shape. A/C vents and controls are in but would need to be completed. It was above my skill set but a classic air installer could handle it.
I really hate to sell this one but moving back to the Caribbean and don’t have a place to keep it.
Clean title and I can deliver.
35,000 OBO
I’m moving soon so make me an offer.”

May 1958 Jeep News

December 18, 2023 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features • TAGS: Jeep-Willys-News. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

The May 1958 issue of Jeep News was only four pages, but the marketing managed to pack in some interesting tidbits. On page one the company discussed the new 3/4 mechanical mule-like prototype. Included is a pic of a model; I wonder what happend to the model? Also on page one, in the lower right of the page is a story about Hugh Smith purposefully driving a jeep through a garage wall to save his brother from a burning garage.

Page two features several FCs, but the one that looks the most interesting (to me) is the unit with the “Samp-O-Rama” traveling meat counter built for Armour and Company in Atlanta.

Page three has a few DJ-3As. Page four features a story about Mr. S. W. Christie, whose contracting company owned 24 jeeps. Despite all the jeeps he owned, he decided to build his young boys a toy jeep of their own.

July 1958 Jeep News

December 18, 2023 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features • TAGS: Jeep-Willys-News. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Because the May 1958 issue was so short, I figured it made sense to include the July 1958 Jeep News issue, which is also short at only six pages. I guess some folks at Willys Motors took some time off during the summer of 1958?

Page one explains some of the improvements made to the new line of Forward Control Jeeps. Page three includes multiple photos of the rare Leveloader FC. Page five shows a couple FCs that were customized to meet particular needs. Page six covers the Jeep Roadeo races in Yakima.

February 1958 Willys News

December 16, 2023 • CATEGORIES: Advertising & Brochures, Features • TAGS: Jeep-Willys-News. This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

This eight-page issue of Willys News is the last “Willys News”. In March of 1958, the name was changed to “Jeep News”, though under the banner the “Willys Motors, Inc.” moniker remains unchanged over subsequent years.

The first page makes a reference to a commercial that ran in 1958 highlighting the new M-274 Mechanical Mule. I tried to find that commercial on YouTube, but didn’t have any success.

Pages two and three is dominated by dealer news. Pages four and five covers the use of jeep vehicles by ATT and its affiliates. Page six features an article on the new Sacramento Jeep Club. Page seven is a potpourri of stories, while page eight discusses “wetter water” and its use with jeeps against red ants.
