Our Project FC-150 finally gets some assembly and a second chance at life...

After working with so many great companies and supporters of this project, we are able to take our components that are freshly powder coated by the guys at Rugged Werx and begin our official build. With less than 2,000 of the FC-150's being built in 1961 we are pleased to be able to bring this one back from a pile of rusted parts to one with a journey and a purpose.

This little gem is going to keep much of its original heritage while also featuring some modern upgrades that will certainly compliment the final product. We have added front a rear disc brake conversions sourced from the folks over at Kaiserwillys.com. The frame, engine and axle housings have all been powder coated with Prismatic Powders from the guys over at Rugged Werx. The engine was freshly rebuilt using components and parts sourced from our friends over at Omix-ADA and the rolling chassis is is stylishly sitting on 31x10.5x15 Patagonia tires from the fine folks over at Milestar Tires.

Stay tuned, subscribe to our channel and we'll have new updates on the project, upgrades and instructional videos associated to the build. Please check out our great sponsors and supporters for any of your project needs and thanks for following along as we bring this classic back from the grave.
