That would be a Forward Control. Can't really tell if it's a 150 or a 170. I'd guess 150 though. Basically a CJ-5 with all the weight up front. :lol:
-
There is a bas ass rebuild of one of these in the current fourwheeler mag. It is trying to get voted into their Top truck competition. They are definately neat.
-
It would make a great desert vehicle since it can carry a lot more than a regular CJ. I like them (along with any old Jeep!).

I got to ride in an FC150 on 33's in Idaho once. Freaky feeling when you break over the top of a hill and start heading down.

I didn't know about the FC 170 but a quick internet check revealed that the FC 170 was a 3/4 ton truck with 6 cyl. This one must be an FC 150 at 1/2 ton.

Ya those things are pretty neat!

Where in PA did you see this? I'd like to take a look at it.

No, there was a Diesel as well.

btw....I can't remember what 4x4 mag it was in as I get them all, but they just had a huge article on an owner gathering for the forward controls just last month. Interesting stuff.

Here in MN today unleaded is $3.09 and diesel is $3.79

ya diesel is relatively expensive here... we can't justify driving our truck without having 2 jeeps behind it.
