1957 FC-170 & Year? FC-150 Norwalk, OH Auction

Glenn spotted these FCs. There are 35 days left until the auctions finish.

This one is listed as a 1963 FC-170, but it looks more like a narrow track FC-150 to me. https://www.proxibid.com/aspr/1963-JEEP-FC170-FORWARD-CONTROL-JEEP/36657633/LotDetail.asp?lid=36657633

On the 150 - is the rear track wider than the front? Or is it a trick of the camera angle?

Looking from the front it doesn't look that wide, but from the back it looks a little wider. I'm guessing it's the camera angle.

They changed the description to read FC150. Still claiming it to be a 63.

The rear fenders need to be a couple inches outward of the bed walls to be late '58 or newer.
