    M816 Engine Options?????? Cummins or not

    I am wondering how a 816 built in 1985 has a non-cummins engine in it? I wonder what else has been substituted, and is it a 1985 or was it refurbished in 1985, I have seen a couple of 816's with new odometers from a rebuild, do they also alter the plates? James G.

    M151A1 Price Question

    A local guy has a 151 that has been sitting in his garage for four plus years? He wanted to restore it but no time. He now wants to sell it for $1,500. I am a M37/M715 guy but I like the Mutts! The tub is in fair shape, front passenger side fender is crumpled, he has a cutout to replace it...
