218 – ‘57 JEEP FC – HKG72

The Jeep Forward Control is a series of trucks produced by Willys Motors and later Kaiser-Jeep from 1956 to 1965. The Forward Controls were mainly marketed as vehicles for commercial use, as well as military use. Customers were offered a large number of “Jeep approved” bodystyles from third parties, ranging from standard pickup beds to tow trucks and fire trucks. This casting replicates a Jeep FC modified for off-roading. It features a Dodge Hellephant crate engine in the rear, as well as a refrigerator box. In development this casting was named the Jeep FC Custom.
