While the M151 and A1s are well-known for their roll-overs due to the suspension issues, was there anything/anyway in which they fared better than the A2s? Do the owners of the A2s in this group wish their A2s had a feature or two which the 151 and A1s had but no longer continued in A2?
Here are some pix of the Ford M151A2 I am referring to. Did Ford produce M151A2 come with small lights below the headlights - like this one has? If not, could this be an M151A1 with A2 fenders? Or...an A2 with grille of an A1?!:roll:
Were there any differences among the M151A2s according to their production years i.e., did the early A2s differ in anyway from the late A2s - visibly or otherwise? If data plates do not exist and documents do not indicate the production date, is there any other way one could estimate the...
I came across this M-37 for sale here in Italy. I have not succeeded in contacting the seller and hence do not have much info. The sale ad says the engine turns and there is no body rust.
The star with circle obviously does not belong to the era of the vehicle. Do the letters and numbers on the...
Hi All,
I have posted a pix of an M151 (The sale ad says it is an M151A1) which has come up for sale here in Italy. While I agree that side lights/turn indicators are as per European requirement, I am a bit confused by the absence of the original small lights on the fender - if it really is an...
Hi All,
I am interested in a M151A2 which is for sale here, in Italy. I have posted some pix. I had one of the rare 1984 M151A2s which was produced for foreign military sale and shipped to Sudan - among a few other countries.
This one looks a bit different than the other M151A2s I have seen...
❑ Has the car been recently repainted? (Look for signs of spray paint on moldings; also check the edges of the doors, hood, and trunk to be sure they are all the same color. Fresh paint may cover rust that will continue to progress.)
What?! I thought you were talking about a jeep here!
This MB I am looking at, has some oil leakages on the underside of the vehicle. I have posted some pix here. Would be much helpful if you let me know how bad it could be and what may be required to fix it. Thanks guys!

Rome, Italy.
I came across this jeep for sale here in Italy. I thought at first it was a CJ-5 but then I noticed the battery box on the cowl which did not make sense. Also, there is a DC outlet behind the driver's seat (Photo attachment 6). Could this be a CJ-5 in M38A1's guise? It does not look like the...
Hi All,
I came across this M38A1 for sale in northern Italy. It is a 1961 and could be a Dutch assembled Nekaf. Its chassis number is MD67341.
Can anyone tell me if this number corresponds to the year of manufacture (1961)? I have posted some pix of the jeep for you guys to view and comment so...
It is easier to find a gasoline V8 engine for sale here than a diesel one. Would not mind an American gasoline V8 engine that would bolt to the Th400. Any suggestions?
Hi All,
What would be the best engine (diesel or a gasoline) to replace the original engine of a M1038 with minimum modifications? The current 6.2 liter motor is dead. It is not easy to find another HMMWV engine or its spare here in Italy. Please help!
Hi Guys,
I have posted some pix of HMMWVs assembled in Greece by Hellenic Vehicle Industry S.A.
Some models differ slightly in appearance from the ones made in the U.S. Hope the pix are not too small!
