This FC-170 pickup was an Original Forest Service Truck.  It has a L6-226 w/ T-98 4 speed, 2-barrel manifold and carb from a Willys Pickup.  Also has a Western Snowplow. 

“This is a working FC, it is used for general chores and snowplowing on a Northern Montana Buffalo Ranch.  As a work Truck I prefer it to my 1999 F250 Superduty.  The FC’s lower bed is much easier to work out of and it is very maneuverable.  It will also go more places than the F250.  I often find myself saying, “What a great truck.”
