Car of the Week: 1957 Jeep FC-150

The Jeep FC-150 was short-lived and not the prettiest thing around, but guys like Earl Pamperin still love 'em.

When Earl Pamperin shows up at a car show in his rare 1937 Willys sedan, he can be pretty sure it will be the only one there.

When the Juneau, Wis., resident decided he needed another unique orphan vehicle in his life, he wanted it to be as rare as his '37. His shiny 1957 Willys FC-150 pickup definitely fills the bill. And not only are car and truck from the same Willys bloodline, they share a similar restoration story.
