Old Crusty- 1958 FC170

[piginajeep]

I've always wanted a FC. Even more so after we worked on the mighty FC at the shop. We (wife and I) finally found one. This is our 1958 FC170.

It's completely stock. The bumpers were a heavy duty option from the factory!

Found this inside the back

It's hard to say what the original color is, I'm leaning towards orangish color after sanding part of the roof and bedsides

More pics as I start working on it
