1961 FC-150 Loveland, CO **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4600.

Needs a few items, but sure looks solid.

"Here's a most affordable RARE antique vehicle, made by Willys for farm/ranch use.

This little truck's teeny 134 c.i. engine runs very well, top speed about 45 mph in high range. Same running gear as a similar era CJ, but it's mid-engined, giving it great traction in 4wd. The little flatbed has a massive set of springs supporting it, 15" tires are good, paint/body are decent.
Included is a 6' Western snowplow, power lift only, that is currently not installed but its frame can be easily re-bolted. With chains on all wheels, I've pushed fresh snow high as the windows. The cabover design lets you see right where the blade is, for tight spots.

Strong Points:
Has a high Cool Factor. Everybody likes the Jeep.
Starts right up, and roars right off --- is a good runner; a great repair manual and minor spare parts included.
Great running gear --- no leaks, brakes are very good (for it's era).
Driver's window is just right for hanging your elbow out.

Weak Points:
Windshield has major cracks on the right side and both side glass is plexiglass (been that way since before I bought it in the late 80's - I did see an ad recently for a cab with intact glass for $100, so this is solvable).
Runs hot in the summer (needs a bigger radiator fan and vents in the bed's headboard), needs a speedo cable made up."

    It's sold. I was hoping to buy it when I fly into Denver this week, but John sold it last night :(
