30: 1957-1965 Jeep FC-150
Also known as the “Forward Control” the Jeep FC-150 was an interesting model. The truck had a big cab-over design, which you don’t see anymore. The truck was quite capable of going off-road, which made for a one-of-a-kind experience. Unfortunately, these trucks are very rare and the Willys-based design is hard to acquire parts for. There are a fair amount of enthusiast groups for these Jeeps, but overall you’d probably be better off finding another alternative from this era. The 1957-1965 Jeep FC-150 is perhaps one of the most unique aspects of the pickup truck industry.
You don’t see these trucks very often but they are also quite the project to undertake. For the average person who’s just trying to build a classic off-road rig, this particular Jeep might be worth avoiding. There are quite a few unique Jeep models that have been on the market but the 1957-1965 Jeep FC-150 is one that’s worth avoiding.
