#3 or what MakersTeleMark said....... Matt

Wonder why the coke can on the cowl wasn't carried over to the production models?:-P Matt

I restored a WC51 back in the 90's and had used a harness from VWoM. Think I paid around $600.00 dollars for it back then. I haven't looked but I'm assuming that they have gone up considerably? Stands to reason I guess as wires are made up of copper & copper is a traded commodity. I really liked...

Also looks like it had a four seat cab instead of just the two in the production models...... Matt

Did not know that any of those prototypes had survived. Have only seen pics of them in Fred Chrismon's book, thanks for posting that link. Regards, Matt

I'm not a reenactor but I must admit that I've always wanted to try my hand at building a VisMod. Not sure what I'd like to attempt, though. Matt

Always thought that they were just "rollers" & not powered. Learn something new everyday (thanks). Matt

There was also one built out of (fairly heavy)steel on a cut down Ford F250 frame. It was only two wheel drive using a cadilac V8 mounted in the rear. The guys from GD had it back in the early to mid 1990s. Mike Shoaler(sp?) restorations down in Florida (whatever happened to him?)was building...

I guess it's because the passenger usually outranked the driver? Both my M37s had the bed mounted spare which I liked anyway. A friend of mine had the door mounted spare on his which he thought looked good but admitted was a giant PITA when you had to get in or out of the truck...

Stationed in Germany back in the early 1980s? Noticed the digital camo pattern on that 'goat. Matt

Was wondering about that, Myself. Regards, Matt

Yeah Riv-Rad is a good company to deal with. Another good company with speedy service is Front Line Military Vehicles up in Pa. www.flmv.net Another great company is Rapco out of Texas http://www.rapcoparts.com/ Brought a lot of stuff off of them when I was restoring my M151A1...

That's one good looking mutt....But I may be slanted in my opinion as I was the P/O. This now makes two M151A2s that I've sold up in the Winchester area....Wow Krink, you ceretainly have been bitten by the "OD bug". Didn't realize you were really going to tear it down. If you need any help or...

With regard to weather or not A2s were used in RVN, from what I was told the US Military predominately used the M151A1s while M151A2s were shipped over & given to the ARVN as replacements for lost A1s. There is an M151 owner's club in Saigon and all of the M151s shown are M151A2s. According to...

Mutts appear to be USMC vehicles. Notice the front bumper and the wheel hub caps sans tie down eyes... Nice find-good luck with the resto when the time comes.... Matt

I'm in Harrisonburg whereabouts are you located? Matt

That has been Uncle's policy since the 1950s and it aint gonna change any time soon. They don't care about how much money they waste. After all it isn't theirs...It's yours & my money.... Matt

Wasn't planing on it but thank you just the same... Matt

It is required in Va if you're not going the antique route. Both of my M151A2s needed them (I put regular tags on 'em instead of antique). Matt

OK now, that would be a hoot! Matt
