A repurposed Jeep M-679 Forward Control Ambulance

You could say Andrea and Jesse Ybarra of Phoenix, Arizona, were “FC before FC was cool.” Jesse’s first motor vehicle driving experience was in a Jeep FC-150 Forward Control (FC) on the remote desert ranch where he grew up, and the FC-bug has remained in his blood ever since. Today, he and wife Andrea are considered the FC enthusiast group’s best ambassadors and promoters through their events and website (fcconnection.com). So what would the ambassadors drive? Jesse has probably bought, sold, scrapped, restored, and built-up more FCs than anyone, but the project in which he invested most of his time, effort, and hard-earned lessons lately is a ’64 M-679 Forward Control Ambulance.
