Don Arnold 1959 61568-16078 (Purchased from Russ Gevarter) It has a Chevy 283 and 3-speed manual trans. It is in running condition, but the brakes take 3 or 4 pumps to grab, and then they don't let go. I think I need to bleed the lines. Is that tube on the dash the brake fluid filler? The windshield is perfect, but the doors, behind the door and rear window glass are cracked.

Tom Bassett MA 1960 61568-18145 It is in need of much work, but I love it. I am a collector of Kaiser & Kaiser Darrin cars and the FC-170 having been designed and built by Kaiser will fit nicely into my collection. It will however be used for plowing and work around my shop. It is amazing how many parts are the same as the Kaiser cars.

Robert Bates 1961 61568-18771 Frame shortened to an 87" wheel base. Still has a 6' Custom bed. The rear bumper is a 6' section of rail road track. It has a 302 Ford motor with a Ford C4 auto, Spicer 18 transfer case with a Saturn overdrive, power steering, power disc brakes and Dana 44's front and rear. It uses cables instead of the original bars to shift transfer & overdrive (better shifting and much easer to route). It also has dual batteries and a 100 amp alternator. The interior is sprayed with Line X and has Honda Accord seats.
Vaughn Becker Queensland, Australia 1964 9309-24048 Just purchased. A twin to my other FC-170 and also delivered to the Australian Air Force. Appears to have been used for fire fighting purposes.
Vaughn Becker Queensland, Australia 1964 9309-24049 Engine No FW6L-25492P Came over in CKD form from USA and was assembled in Brisbane and delivered to Australia Air Force on I July 1964. Was used as a mobile fuel pumper. Purchased in very poor state by me in 1992 and restored to original. Only option fitted is PTO.
Stephen Belcher OH 1960 61568-13221 The body is pretty rough but supposedly it ran when it was parked. It was given to me free. Can't beat that. My son and I had a great day towing it over 60 miles with our own makeshift hitch. I guess now I have a collection.
Stephen Belcher OH 1961 61568-XXXXX Just thought I'd search FC-170 and found you. My first vehicle was a Green 1961 FC-170. I bought it [I think] in 1975. I still have it. It's up in the barn. It needs a lot of work and I plan to do that some day. I have had a lot of offers but I refuse to sell. Drives my wife crazy. I will send for your newsletter but in the mean time I thought I'd drop you a line and let you know another classic has surfaced in Croton Ohio.
Doug Benjamin 1962 61568-21873 Purchased from James Spencer. Has 10' by 6' flatbed. Needs a lot of work but it is a pretty good truck all in all. I was going to rebuild the 226 but discovered that there isn't much you can do to up the performance other than adding a supercharger. After doing some research I think I will build a mildly upgraded Buick V6. Nothing too radical because I want to use it as a daily driver/work truck.

Terry Dow NY 1959 61568-15379 This truck lived most all of its life as a working camp vehicle. It is equipped with a Jayhawk Junior dump (Wyatt manufacturing Co.) with original style willys bed, factory 4 speed transmission, pto that drives off the 4 speed, and has a Western V-plow. Mileage is 39,000. This truck was a work horse and needs plenty of attention but none the less runs great and is a unique vehicle in it's own right; a very handy addition to my FC fleet.
Terry Dow NY 1960 61568-XXXXX This truck is currently being put back together as a plow / wrecker unit. It had its frame cut down to a wheel base of 81 inches by a previous owner so it could be used as a log skidder. It came with powr-loc differentials, front and rear. The upper cab was cut away and had a homemade stake rack mounted in place of the original bed, apparently it was a monster in the woods. I am currently rebuilding another cab to put back on it and have a wrecker body from a parts 170 that will be modified to mount on the shortened chassis. With a wrecker boom and an original plow it will become a useful rig to have around while looking pretty cool.
Jeff Esterline OH 1959 61568-15929 We owned this one about 20 years ago. We built a dump bed for it then and used it as a firewood hauler. Now that we have it back I am looking to put a snow plow on it.

I also recently purchased a Cerlist diesel engine w/out starter: S/N 3000544, date of manufacture 2/16/68. The navweps 19-25-128 service manual shows a 2-bolt starter drive housing and v-belts but mine is 3-bolt and serpentine type belts. I'm interested in information on Cerlist engines, parts and an m-67X truck to purchase.
David Gissen NV 1959 61568-XXXXX Chassis is now done with engine in place. Used a Chevy straight 6. Wiring is done, dash finished. Substituted an electric wiper motor out of the rear of a Dodge Caravan (1988). It required some machining and welding but not bad -- happy to share info to anyone interested. (got for $10 from a junk yard). Used a remote brake fluid res. out of a Mitubishi pickup and mounted it to the right of the dash.

Kevin Goucher MO 19XX 61568-14550 Good shape with a V-8 and 3-speed. It was used to haul a tractor from Clinton, MO. My friend from Clinton bought it and fixed it up. His wife told him to get it out so I got it for free. It needed a lot more work and I just shelled out $680.00 fro brake parts. Boy does JEEP stand for its name: Just Empty Every Pocket. Its not the fastest thing on the road but the most unusual thing the people of Warsaw, MO have seen. People come to my workplace trying to find out what it is. Hell, I even had people trying to steal it when it was left over night to get the tires changed. Never again, Man; did they mess up. My son has more fun in it than I do and he's only four. It's a red and white flat-bed with a rack. I use it to haul wood in the winter. I live in what's called God's Ditch. It's a hole but has a view of the lake. Every year the lake goes down and the flats are muddyand lots of fun. I'm not hard on it and take it out when the flats are dry. I have another 4WD to take out and tear up and use to help others when they get stuck. Not me. "Been there, done that." It sucks. One thing that is unusual is the placement of the air cleaner behind the driver's seat; never gets dirty.

Lang Kidby Queensland, Australia 1965 9309-24439 I have 2 FC-170. One fully restored and the other good restorer. Most FC-170 in Australia were Air Force tarmac fuel pumpers with power take-off, filters etc for underground fuel to aircraft operations. As far as I know there were no FC-150s in Australia but I do recall seeing a dual-wheel FC-170 once back in the 60's. Both my vehicles were fairly rare civilian and one has the original stake sides which is a bonus as Australian farmers use flat-tops almost exclusively. My only modification is a TORO overdrive which makes it really nice on the highway. The vehicle has both WILLYS and KAISER plates in the cab beside the right seat. Right hand drive was done at the factory here in Australia or before shipment from USA???The terrible gearshift linkages have been replaced by a really simple rod directly to a top loader on the gearbox instead of the side shift arrangement. Nearly had a divorce twice in the bush with my wife straddling the engine bay with a rope over her shoulders supporting the transmission as I pulled it out to get at the gears with a screwdriver to unlock it when two gears were selected simultaneously.

As soon as you open the driver door you can view the red control knob. This truck also had the dealer installed 9-foot Meyer snow plow and wrap around rear bumper. I can say after owning many of these, I have never before seen the radio or the emergency flasher set up. My father had purchased many of these new for his paving and excavation business from 1958 -1962 .

The man that owned it had started to totally rebuild the truck (engine had only 15 minutes run time on it) New paint etc ! Illness stopped him before he was able to finish the rebuild. For all these years he would not sell it until he decided that he would never be able to finish it (He told me that his family wanted him to sell all his toys before he checked out ) With the truck I also got many pallets of spare assemblies and parts. The truck is in very good condition only needs the finishing touch which I will do. Many people have asked me if I would consider selling it and my answer is NO !

Ben Parrish WA 196061568-XXXXX It's an ex-Forest Service truck with an aftermarket Garrwood hydraulic flat bed. I know it was a factory special order with the 4-speed and 4:88 gears, "fancy" interior, and I think it was ordered with the cab only. I put a 4" lift on it and 32x9.50 mud tires and blew the motor 2 day after it was done. Looking for a new 6 or info on V-8 swap.

Daniel Rogers 1961 61568-22856 Stake bed. Found in a field with 1982 registration. The owner sold it to me for $750, and it came with a photo album of FC's, and factory service manual. New fuel pump and some TLC and it fired right up. Smokes a bit but sound great. I've only put about 10 miles on it and it smokes less everytime. My two year old boy loves it and says,"Can we go for a ride in Dada's flatbedtruck?!" Generally the answer is yes!

Carl Stender MI 1958 61568-12126 Runs and drives great. Starts better than my new truck. Has 31.5" x 10.5" BFG Mud Terrains. Everything seems to be original as near as I can tell, however it did have some minor surgery on the bed and was totally repainted. Would like info on V-8 swap although I have no intentions of changing this FC. This truck was sold about seven years ago from a fire station in Arizona. Any info regarding who may have worked on this truck would be GREATLY appreciated.
Don Stevens WA 196361568-23776 Government tag says delivered 1962 to the U.S. Forest Service. Truck was a pickup originally. I put a 10 foot flatbed with oak sides on it and a hydraulic bed hoist so it is a small dump truck. I replaced the flathead six with a Chevy 327 and the T-98 4-speed with a Turbo 350 automatic. It has 5.38:1 axles, rebuilt 9-leaf springs, Chevy seats and a PTO winch mounted in a homebuilt bumper.
Ben Stiles WA 19XX 61568-18741
Mark Stranahan MI 1958 61568-10353 The body is rather intact but in need of paint, and the mechanicals are good. The truck has apparently only gone about 35,000 miles. I had planned on using it as a driver and working on it gradually to keep it mechanically sound, but a combination of the body being so fundamentally good and a couple of mechanical problems are leading me to think it should be more completely rebuilt now.

The FC's lower bed is much easier to work out of and it is very maneuverable. It will also go more places than the F-250. I often find myself saying, 'What a great truck!'"

Patrick Mauck UT 1964 61568-13-10984 Does not run. I plan on getting it road worthy, enjoy driving it around for a few years, and then (when I have lots of money) doing a complete restoration. It currently has a 6 cyl. chevy engine. The serial # indicates a three speed, but it has a 4 speed, so I assume that was changed at some point (probably when the engine was replaced). UPDATE JAN 2004: My DRW (61568-13-10984) has been running and licenced since July 2003! I have been doing exactly what I said I was going to do..."enjoy driving it around". It is so much fun! I have no short term plans to restore it as I have other projects, and besides I like it just the way it is!
