Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to digitally present this 1963 Jeep FC150.In the early 1960s, America was building-literally. Farms, job sites, municipalities, and small businesses needed machines that worked as hard as the people operating them. Jeep answered that call with the Forward Control series, placing the cab over the front axle to maximize payload, visibility, and versatility. The FC150 wasn't designed to be flashy-it was designed to earn its keep.Powered by a 75-horsepower 4-cylinder F-head Hurricane engine paired to a 3-speed manual transmission and four-wheel drive, this FC150 delivers the kind of mechanical honesty that defined its era. Simple, durable, and dependable, it's a drivetrain built to work in conditions that would stop lesser vehicles in their tracks.What truly sets the FC150 apart is its adaptability. Jeep engineered these trucks to serve countless roles, and this example reflects that original mission perfectly. Out back sits a functional stake-bed setup, ideal for hauling equipment, supplies, or materials. Up front, a forward-facing winch reinforces its work-ready nature, while provisions for a snowplow attachment speak directly to its utility-first design and cold-weather capability.Today, vehicles like the FC150 occupy a special place in the collector world.
