This is a scarce variant of the 478 model with a red interior. It is in very good condition and the lift mechanism works well. The windows and wheels, suspension are all excellent. Not many of these around.

About this Collectible

Item Condition:
Excellent
Packaging Condition:
None
Condition Notes:

The last of the Jeep FC-150s which had started in 1959. This one came out in 1965 and lasted until 1969 and, looking at its condition and wheels, this will be one of the very last.

This version will always be this metallic green with yellow interior. There was a red version that was sold in GS14 with a lamp standard and character but that will have had no suspension or interior.

This one is virtually as new. The tower thing works beautifully and stays in position - a lovely bit of engineering again on this Jeep base.
