1963 FC-170 West Rupert, VT SOLD

UPDATE: Was $5900. **SOLD**

(04/11/2016) This former fire truck runs.

"1963 Jeep FC170 - rare Forward Control model. Ordered new as a fire support truck, low actual miles but then sat and engine froze up. Original engine in bed. Has all new rebuilt engine, with new pistons, bearings, clutch, pp, flywheel. Runs great. New brakes all round, new lines, new cylinders, hubs, bearings, gas tank boiled and sealed, etc. Good 3 speed trans. 4WD. Sticky shifter, needs linkage bushings, didn't get to that yet.

Body is very good. Interior is honestly rough. Very rare utility body. No wannabes, please."

Does anyone know the status of this truck? Did it sell?

Nick, I haven't seen it relisted since April, so I suspect it sold. I've updated the post. - Dave
