Howdy! The truck you have is Called a Willys Jeep FC (forward control) 170 DRW (Dual rear wheel) these trucks were produced in limited numbers between 1957-1966. Jeep Produced quite a few differnt varieties. The Jeep FC150 is the smallest and most common. It has the F-head 134 CID Hurricane engine. It is rated for 3/4 ton The FC-170 is basically a longbed FC150 with the Flathead six 226 CID Super hurricane engine The FC170 is rated as a one ton. Your truck is the FC170 DRW and is a heavy duty one ton. It should have the 226 CID flathead six and a 4 speed. Also in the mid 60's Jeep Made military versions of the Forward Control. There was a Crew Cab version of the FC170 and a Van-Caryall Version. The military trucks had a 3 cyl Cerlist diesel engine.
Just look around, info for them is out there. There is a great site on the net here that has lotsa info on them hosted by Danny Hartling.
If you ever decide to sell your FC, let me know..thanks.
