Best looking Jeep FC - 140
I was surprised that one truck did not make it on the list and that is a Mercedes-Benz Unimog this is the kind of vehicle as ugly as it looks can go just about anywhere where most four-wheeled trucks Fear To Tread.
@@brianfullen5470 that's very interesting on the vehicle you pick that's also one of my favorites but a rare model that was on a one and a half ton chassis which was used in one part in the movie called hatari starring John Wayne where they were in Africa loading a rhinoceros in a crate on top of that chassis of that particular one and a half ton Jeep.
The Chevy Ak truck is the best. The forward Command is 2nd. The Ridgeline is the worst. 2nd place in terrible is the Wildfire. Runner up is the modern Ridgeline.
Sillyest is the Dodge with the fins
The Jeep FC series is among the most versatile utility vehicles I've ever seen. At that point, the beauty is in its simplicity.
That dodge swept side is a thing of beauty, same goes for the cab forward Jeeps. Cab overs are also simply cool.
Hello Fargo Monkey, thank you for watching!
Many of those Dodge Sweptsides came with push-button automatic transmissions.
TYPO SPACES!!!!!😪😪😪😪😡😡😡😡😡😡
Love those old Jeep FCs. The best pickup you could buy, except for that tiny little engine. 1964 was too late to be running a flat head.
The 1960 we had was an F-head.
An American version of the Forward Control Land Rover 101FC…
I owned a 1962 FC 150 the gear shift was terribly sloppy. Took the body off eventually and put a CJ5 body on it. Yes it fit right on with little work . Installed a manual overdrive on the transfer case and ended up with like 24 forward and8 reverse gears on 5:56 Dana 44 axles. Then dropped in a Chevrolet 283 cubic inch engine. You could not stop the wheels from turning on it.
@@christinamoneyhan5688 Love It!
In India Mahindra Jeep FC was a super hit
The killer for the Econoline was the solid body. With a heavy load the body would twist, and bind the doors. Later versions separated the bed from the cab solving the problem. I'm a Chevy fan, but the Econoline had a ton of storage behind the seats. I almost bought one, but another guy, got there before me. This was 1970 While I was in the Navy. The guy who had it, was so picky, he would lay on his back, and polish the u-joints with a rag, once a week.
I loved that Willys Jeep forward control.
Bought a 2006 Ridgeline in 2008 and owned it for 14 years. One of the most reliable vehicles I ever owned. I really miss the 2 way tailgate and the rear trunk, both were extremely useful.
Hello Mark Hastings, thank you for watching!
I've owned 5 Econoline pickups, both 3 window and 5 window models,. I've had a 1961, three 1963's and a 1965. They are truly a superior design when compared to other forward cab trucks of their size available at the time, however they are not without their shortcomings, as are ALL forward cab trucks. In the case of the E series, some small and rather easy and inexpensive improvements rectify those shortcomings, and leave you with a DYNAMITE vehicle that outshines just about any other truck with 2 wheel drive and a utility bed of comparable size. An 11" front disc brake kit and a Wilwood proportioning valve solves the fading and nosediving problems. Monroe gas magnum shocks also helped, even more than coil overs...and I had one with coil overs. A steel tubular crossmember for properly installing a small block V8 improves oomph and towing, and stops any cab/body flexion. (these are unit body vehicles with no frame, susceptible to torque and road flexion issues) Adding a small V8 with that cross member also improves their already NEARLY PERFECT 50/50 weight distribution, by making them truly mid engined and placing even more engine weight behind the front axle. A nice heavy duty 4 core radiator and 5 blade fan with a fan shroud solves any cooling problem these have while sitting in traffic, V8 or no V8., you don't need a loud electric fan. I preferred these with the stock factory C4 "shorty" automatic transmission, set up with stock 9" rear end and a balanced stock drive shaft. With a small block V8 conversion, I used the B&M 2800-3200 rpm stall converter and a heavy duty valve body, no other mods were done on the trans. that was plenty for getting out of it's own way, giving nice quick shifts with minimal loss of power, and for towing without building up excess heat. I got away without using a separate trans cooler, but some people like to use them. I lived in California and it worked just fine for me. These are great trucks that don't weigh much more than a beetle, so they really get it on with a small block. The stall converter was also how I saved myself from buying rear tires because with no weight in the bed and a snorty V8, traction WILL be an issue! You can get as crazy as you want with these, but this was plenty for me, the guy who helped me with mine had a shorty van with a dual quad 460ci V8, that did (gulp!) 140 mph! -happy trails :)
He failed to mention the Ford Econoline pickup was downright fun to drive.
There was one in the family in the late 60's/early 70's.
I miss the sound of the clutch pedal banging after someone slides their foot off of it.
I had a 62' , I should have kept it.
yea with a 460 real fun but hard to keep cool
They were enjoyable to drive and had great visibility. But The main downside was the rough ride for the driver and front passenger because the seat was over the front wheel. If you hit a speed Hump, HOLD ON 😂.
The Air Force in the 60's had A LOT of Econoline pickups. Yes, fun to drive but especially treacherous in the winter. Most had added weight in the form of a layer of sandbags that covered the entire truck bed and for the most part were there year around. Just about all our vehicles at Offutt AFB had center roof mounted spot lights that I loved since I worked a lot of night duty. Worked an auto parts sales route for a while, my vehicle was an Econoline van ... it was terrifying to drive in a strong crosswind!
During the commentary of he Econoline. They actually showed 1 that was actually a corvair rampside
Right! And I say that the Corvair Rampside was uglier than the Econoline.
The forward cab Jeep pickups are gorgeous... Almost bought one years ago... Love to have one now and stick a fold-out camper on it
I would take any of them in a heartbeat!
Same for me!
The Subaru Baja was an update (of sorts) on the Brat. One of my brothers had a Brat and loved it. I drove it many times and it was lots of fun. It had seats in the bed that were good for watching fireworks or outdoor movies.
I was going to say, so weird they mentioned Baja without mentioning Brat
I have a 1978 BRAT and loved it In the snow and blizzards in Iowa ran circles around my dad Lincoln.
My best friend when we were in high school had a brat that sucker went everywhere man it was amazing. We live in Utah so it's a lot of mountains here and that sucker could almost go as many places as I could take my Toyota Land Cruiser in. It surprised the hell out of me.
Pretty good list 🙂
You did miss one :
1958- 1961 Studebaker Transtar 4x4 truck.
Starting in 1957, they
“ updated “ the grill with a fiberglass “buck tooth” look ‼️
📻🙂
The Ford Econoline truck brings back memories.
I was about 6 in the 70's and my dad had one.
It had an engine cover inside the cab that I often had to sit on.
On long trips it was hot and uncomfortable. :-)
Subaru made another truck early 80s I think It was named "Brat" It was kinda cool had a pair of bucket seats that went against the cab in the bed with full seat belts they came out fairly easy
The reason they stopped making cab overs is because they are so easy to work on.... Dealers lose money when people work on things themselves.
Uh, NO. It's because in a crash, the driver is first on the scene... They've VERY unsafe in a crash.
The late 50's Dodge pickup shown has a push button transmission (to the left of the steering wheel), not "3 on the tree", although I'm sure that was the standard version for it.
Ugly never goes out of style
I had a FC 170,I loved the looks,had a PTO fully boxed frame,sold it before I ever drove it flathead 226 c.i. six,I was a teenager back in the 70 is when I owned it and sold it
The Subaru Baja is the re-imagining of the Subaru Brat
Of all these the Ford Econoline could work today van and pickup a refreshed econoline is welcome
I like the 3 on the tree transmission comment at 4:20 while it shows the mopar push button selector on the dash.
i HAVE A 57 FWC 175 AND LIKE IT VERY MUCH. ENCOUNTERED MY FIRST FWC AT AGE 12, IT WAS A WELL DRILLERS SERVICE RIG. BECAUSE HE LET ME DRIVE IT A FEW FEET I FELL IN LOVE.
Hello Steve Curtiss, thank you for watching!
They're all beautiful in their own right. It's in the eyes of the beholder.
Agreed, except the Dodge Daytona
The best looking beautiful pickup was Kathy...so gorgeous....Kathy...always feel so good seeing you....
I've owned a 66 Econoline pick up, and a 59 FC150, my 2 favorite vehicles. So much fun to drive, got stares everywhere I drove them.
Interesting that the article mentions the Baja as something “new” for Subaru, but it wasn’t. The Baja was an updated and re-badged Brat.
I really enjoyed this video, Thanks for posting! Innovation and "daring" designs with technology and the ability to have these vehicles perform various functions for work, play and everyday life. There are a few here I would love to have.
How is a chevy 6400 ugly? Its basically a 3100 with a bigger bonnet and the COE is frankly gorgeous! Well I want one anyway
Nothing wrong with it at all.
I rode in several different size chevy trucks....NO one every complained about the grill???
bgoth1: I'm a Ford guy and I love those old Chevys! That truck would fit my needs perfectly right about now!
Yeah i was thinking the same thing the 3100 is one of the coolest and mos desirable old trucks and they look exactly the same as a 6400, is a matter of taste i guess.
Yeah, sorry. That is one that definitely fits the title so ugly it's cute.
My Uncle had 1 of those JEEPS for his garden/ florist business,, We use to ride around standing up in the back of it.. LOLThe FORD Econolines were cool drove a van on my 1st job at 16 delivering to drug stores Those 50's DODGE cabs were used for every Dodge truck up into the 70's on their medium & heavy trucks. I drove one them as Dump trucks, & semi trucks, including the BIG HORN
A "beautiful" truck is one that is carries the load and performs it's task year after year reliably! They don't need style or 'panache'! The FC-170 was, by that definition, a beautiful truck, that worked and worked for decades!
Once again awesome video Mr Hevyshevy. Thank you for sharing your videos.
I had a 1964 150 fc Jeep what a fun truck to drive ever place I parked people would point and laugh
Jeep truck is super cool... Ruled Indian streets back in 1980s
The Ford Econoline pickup looked great, and so was it's competition, the Chevrolet Corvair pickup. The C series heavy duty truck had a beautiful grille, what were the critics talking about?
Hello Chalres Kirkland, thank you for watching!
The Chevy 6400 trucks were just heavier versions of the other "Advance Design" trucks of that period.
One of the Ford Econoline pics was a Chevy Corvair!
Yes, the Rampside with dual headlights
Yeah, for comparison
The corsair rampside was really cool.
All while comparing the short run of the Econoline at 6 years? When the Rampside and Regular Corvair Truck without a ramp was only 2-3 years!
#11 the 1948-54 Chevy was so beautiful that Ford Chrysler Studebaker could not touch
Hello Kaare Severson, thank you for watching!
OMG I want a Jeep forward control firetruck 😍
Funny thing is the grey one was a friend of mines, lol
Yeah, with no electronic junk like today's trucks!
My dad is a jeep guy he knows were one is but its a peace of crap
A friend of mine has one! It's in northern MI.
Really like the Jeep FC.. “Forward Control” Have wanted one since the 50s.. Always rare, now any decent one is very costly.
I agree, that Jeep would make a great, go anywhere, weekender / camper too! I want one :-)
My uncle had a FC 150. I have been trying to track it down for 30 years. I also what the 1936 Ford dump truck he had.
Here in India despite being rare they are not too costly . You can find a fc 150 aka fc460 in india for $2000
I drove one at work in the early 1970's. We used it to take a lot of trash to the dump, cargo handling, and plowing snow. I thought it was a great truck! They got rid of it about 1976 and got Internationals.
I like all the older ones!
5:14 Vidal & Sohn (Tempo) were not known for military contracts, but for their legendary tricycle transporters. Of course, Tempo (like all manufacturers) had to produce parts for military vehicles and aircraft as a subcontractor. Later Tempo built the transport trailer for the V2 rocket.
At 5:21 you can see the G1200, a very good off-road vehicle with one two-stroke engine each front and rear. The German Wehrmacht never used it. They did not want two-stroke vehicles for logistical reasons. But neutral Sweden alone bought over 400 of them and was happy with them.
5:28 As a child, I rode along in the Tempo Matador. It's true, I thought it was very ugly even then.
Greetings from Germany.
Hello Manfred Schilly, thank you for watching!
The Dodge Swept Side pictured has the Chrysler push-button Torque-Flight automatic transmission, not a “3-on-the-tree”.
My dad had an econoline. We all loved it. We named it George.
lol.., we named ours too. it was this dark green and we called it The Hulk
Darren Spohn-I remember a guy in Gorham,Maine who had a 1961 Ford Falcon pickup.It looked exactly like the Econoline,but it was built on the Falcon wagon chassis with the the Falcon 144 cubic inch 6 cylinder engine.I wonder how many of these are left?
Cassie, I find you to be the most interesting.
As far as the trucks? Any of them cept the Honda and newer VW. Very cool trucks.
Subaru had the right idea to add a few inches to the old PU cab because ALL of the Asian trucks in that class were too small for the USA market in that era. If you were over 5 ft 7 and male your legs were just too long. It took another 10 years for Datsun and Toyota to fix that. I spent a lot of time (too much) working on a Jeep FC for a guy who had a fleet of older vehicles. I still have it in partially restored pieces if anyone is interested. The Subaru Baha was also sold as "The Brat" some 30+ years earlier. 2 doors up front and 2 more seats in the bed. (to get around steep taxes in the home market on 2 seater vehicles)
Hello rupe53, thank you for watching!
Who said the mazda 277 rotary is ugly???? That thing is a beauty
Hello FLAMINGMOH(Mohawesome), thank you for watching! We did say that in the title.
Jeep truck was produced by Mahindra and Mahindra in India it was fairly popular back then because we didn't had plenty options to choose from!
At least they have character and personality.
Calling a Subaru Baja or a Honda Ridgeline a truck is absurd! Even the VW Rabbit was more of a truck than either of them and it was not taken very seriously either.
There are no ugly trucks, just not enough to haul.
Love the Econoline trucks!!
I had a 1981 rabbit pick-up diesel and I loved it !
this vw model has been produced in Brazil since 1982 and has an updated design and many versions using a 1.6 liter gasolin/ethanol mix motor. It 's called Saveiro and now 36 years on the market. the brazilian VW Bus (Kombi/clipper ) now a fashion van was also produced from 1958 trough 2010 with slight changes in design.
I'll take the old hightop Chevy pickup with frame. Always wanted to build a small one person with dog motorhome out of one.... So ugly, they're beautiful! And I like sitting up high, like when I used to drive tractor trailers. I miss it, but I don't miss the idjuts, which have been breeding like rabbits over the years... 😵 Classy video! I actually RODE in a rotary pickup, and it was fast!
My Dad drove a '64 Econoline van; it was homely but tough as nails.
My favorite was the jeep truck fire truck
The Chevy 283 didn’t come out until 1957, so there is no way the COE came with it. Chevy did t make an “modern” V8 until 1955, which was the 265.
Since Toyota took "ugly" to depths never before imagined, these all look great by comparison.
Did anyone notice there were at least two skips in the editing? The second one was in the middle of talking about the Rabbit truck. All of a sudden it cut to the Wildfire three-wheeled truck? Not sure what was going on there
I like the Dodge 100 . it's a classic. I'm very attracted by and to it.
This list is completely wrong as love
all these beautiful vehicles.
Right, some people don't appreciate utility I guess.
Not all, the RAM, Honda and Subaru are ...not so nice.
The older cars...Love it !
Except that stupid Subaru outback
I thi k i saw 3 maybe 4 that actually fit the bill of so ugly they are cute.
These trucks look better than most of the bland designs today
I like the Chevy COE. It's not ugly, it looks more unique I have to say. The rabbit pickup was an unusual car also, but wasn't ugly I think. Today it has cult status.
Hello Gerd Haase, thank you for watching!
Jeep forward control is awesome I love it.
Other than the dodge truck#9 the rest were NOT ugly at all
#10 The Mazda rotary was given a gas engine later. I had a 1980 Ford Courier, manufactured by Mazda, that looked almost identical to that pictured. (I now own a mid-90’s Mazda B series pickup, manufactured by Ford!)
That little Courier took a lot of abuse and only had two issues. The engine block freeze plugs corroded and failed one by one and were difficult to replace. The wheel lugs on one side were left-hand thread. I busted two of them before I realized why they were so difficult to remove. The lugs were easy to knock out and replace with right-hand thread.
All these "ugly" trucks are so beautiful. Nothing to do with all these modern trucks.
Hello claudia draper, thank you for watching!
I like all of them but my favorite is the Baja it's like a small 4 Dr. Truck.... I want one
"a three on the tree transmission"... 4:18 image shows push button gear selector
I have seen an F C Jeep in the wild before, and the occasional Rotary pickup. I grew up in the Central Coast of California, full of odd imported & domestic vehicles.
Having owned Subarus from 1989, and My Father first Buying them from1981, The Baja is a 21st century Brat. It's little brother all grown up, but yet still obsolete...
We've got a Ridgeline (it's a company car) and I don't think they're ugly, odd looking for a truck, yes, ugly no. As stated in the video, Honda markets them as a light duty truck, like the Canyon/Colorado, Tacoma, Ranger (RIP). But they make it look like a truck because they don't want to. They make it as a open back alternative to the Pilot, if you are moving stuff and you don't want to mess up your daily.
Ridgelines are basically useless. All SUT's are.
@@ffjsb you're 4 years late to this comment but that is objectively false
The 46 Chevy is my favorite truck and I love the grill
I know someone who's got a 47 to this day and it's got under 10,000 original miles and he hasn't registered it after 1947 and yet he still drives it but mainly on his property out on the artichoke fields that's all he ever does with his truck and yes the thing still runs.
@@garyquail2347 nice
@@ephraimprince8408 thanks I myself am in the process of restoring a 1951 Chevrolet 5 window cab pickup truck myself.
There is a huge difference in the aesthetic sense of beauty between the USA and Europe and because as usual the USA continues to ignore contributions from the 'rest of the world' these judgements are distorted.
It would be good if laziness was put aside and other nations were considered.
Thanks for the great video some really nice trucks. Subaru made the Baja in the 80s as well if I remember correctly it had to bucket like seats in the truck box behind the cab that faced the tailgate I remember I always wanted one but that never happened thanks again for the great video I look forward to more
The Jeep FC150 is very cool Forward Control.... I wish GM would pair up with Suzuki and make their X-Head cab over engine COE Truck... The would sell millions. Make mine with a 4 cylinder turbo diesel, getting 60mpg. and make it for under $20,000.
I think A classic that was the ugliest will automatically become a beauty over the time!
The Dodge 100. It's a classic. It's a beauty. I'm very attracted by and to it.
Ah, Cassi (Kassi?), A delight to the eye. Loved the truck series.
Hello Zone 7 Professional Gardening, thank you for watching!
The narrator has an easy to listen voice , I enjoyed the video mostly because of him
I’d love to see the Datsun pickup at a later point
The ford econoline brings back memories of my youth as I remember seeing them around
LOVE That green Rotary Power
Dodge at 4:21 "Three on the tree" is a pushbutton automatic.
This is not accurate!.
Do you remember which vehicle had "three on the tree" left side?
Very Cool!!! Thanks for the Upload
Jeep FC trucks are not ugly, they're awesome
Hello BD200, thank you for watching!
The Mazda Rotary pick ups are way cool. The Jeep FC were ugly but very usefull.
actually i pretty much liked them all.and i really do enjoy all your vids thank you.
Thank you for sharing !
I had a Baja for 5 years before the dreaded Subaru cancer set in but by far the best and most useful vehicle I've ever had. Even when my friends used to give me crap about it they still asked to borrow it to move things. 9/10 would buy again
It's The most beautiful classic car in the world..
I love it...
Car. It's no truck. But that jeep utility vehicle. With the bed is awesome!! I want one of those.
It’s a Ute to me utes can go up to 1.5 ton
As an Indian we are familiar with ugly vehicles but so beautiful.
Honest, practical, down to earth, easy to work on with budget in mind. Now? Feel good expensive add-on BS sitting in the drives doing nothing eye
candy!
Hello paul broderick, thank you for watching!
I am a So he can that Ram is so awesome!
Nowadays we have plastic at front and rear bumper so guess what ,
Even a minor brush with anything will provide the automaker huge money for replacing the plastic Bumpers or lights .
Little wonder that people refuse to buy the automobiles and GM now closing it plants .
Great vid.
Thankxx
I hope you added the 50 Chevy just because you ran out of cars because that's a beautiful piece of art
We've got a 6400 sitting in a yard near us, and I think it looks cool.
It does.
@@tommytruth7595 don't believe you!
VW rabbit truck most beautiful ever made !
Owned a Subaru Brat 1979. Great little vehicle in my opinion.
