Jeep had originally dated this photo as 1964, but as commentors noted on the Hemmings Blog, it has to be around 1968 or 1969. That style market lights on the Wagoneers were not used until 1968. Perhaps even more interesting to me is the weird marker lights on the CJ-5 Jeep. Was it built for foreign export?
This 1969 Jeep Commando Jeepster is for sale on Ebay and we think it is a pretty good deal for the price. It was repainted about 10 years ago and although there is the odd orange peel here and there, rust seems to be non existant. There is a few electrical gremlins, but overall, the [...]

hd1936knuck from the International Full Size Jeep Association has a 1980 J10 Laredo truck for sale. The 360 V8 runs good, but the 727 lockup transmission leaks, but he has the original non lock up transmission to go with it but it needs a rebuild. Of course, it still has the infamous Quadra Trac tranfer case. The body is good appears to be in good shape. I love the nostalgic windows in the canopy! He is asking $2250 and it is located in Douglasville, Ga.
This Jeep JA-3AB for sale on Ebay is totally different than what I am used to seeing! If not for the $15,000 price tag and the cost of shipping from Argentina, I would consider buying it. It is just so different! It is obviously patterned after the Jeep CJ-5, but I have never seen some of the wierd things like the steps. I love the pop out windshield, though! Have you ever seen a Jeep like this? Do you have any more information?

Recently, some photos of the 2010 FC Roundup were posted on the FC Connection page. It looks like there was some awesome forward control Jeep trucks and panels at this event!
Back in November 2009, we posted an article about this Jeep CJ stepside truck that us a copy of the rare Gaucho truck, which was built by a California Jeep dealer in the 70’s. The owner has decided to sell the project, which is really a shame since he is almost finished! This interesting project is up for sale on Ebay and you can view the buildup on Jeep forum.com
I have seen some vintage photos of the red tour FC Forward Control Jeep trucks, but I was elighted to find this article about the restoration of one. The Jeep was found in Colorado and was lovingly restored from the monster truck status you see in the photos below to a period correct San Juan Scenic Jeep Tours company vehicle. The owner finished the restoration within a week of his trip to Colorado and was able to swing by the San Juan Scenic Jeep Tours office to show off his restoration. Needless to say, everyone loved the truck! There is a lot more photos on the FC Connection website.
