Would be cool to see it climbing through the Rubicon!

I'd go for that fc jeep any day. 8)

It's funny that you posted that.For the last month I've been cruising E-bay and Craigs list searching for and checking prices on 1960's fc 170.
Dreams of one day buying one and building it.

I'm with Rick, that FC is just rad and I'm drooling.

I have always liked those gladiator trucks too.

Hopefully Huck gets some good pictures of these right up close. 😀

If they make either in a 4 door with a reasonable towing capacity I'd strongly consider it for my next rig.

Awesome ground clearance on the Jeep Mighty FC. High center of gravity though.

Great article Keane. I like the bottle opener outside the cab. I'm impressed how much JKU is used in that truck. The Cab is a JK. the rear is a JK. It even looks like the powertrain and frame is still a JKU. The upper bed is a raised deck but the lower deck looks just like an enclosed JKU body.

That's a pretty cool rig. On 39's too!

It keeps with tradition that they use the jku platform. The original fc-150's were built on the cj-5 chassis.

Cool find on the article Keane.

I'll take mine in the same color but with four doors like the old military versions. 8)
