    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Sidsky I see by your "offer" that it has a good Mn title but could you shed some more light on the following, What type? M151, M151A1 or M151A2 for examples. Has your mutt even been demilled? How's the body? Any rust issues...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    I understand but remember; no one plans on getting into an accident. That's why they're called accidents. With that being said, I'm sure you'll have loads of fun with you (potential) new toy and will discover as I did just how much fun these "little" jeeps are...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Here's the skinny on rollovers and M151s. Do not take a turn above 25 MPH or you will stand a very good chance of rolling it! Most roll overs were due to human error. In other words, the driver was doing something he or she shouldn't have. ROPS are nice but make...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Depends on the sub type: M151, M151A1 or M151A2 as these all had different manufactures. For my '67 M151A1 which was built by Ford, I think it was listed as a Ford P/U or "sport utility". My first A2, which had a DoD of '71 was listed as a "Ford" as...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    You're welcome, Chris. That sounds like a solid plan but don't be discouraged if the owner acts like that A1 was Gen.Westmoreland's Personal command jeep. It happens. If this one doesn't work out, there will be others. Of that, I'm sure...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Chris With that nugget of info, I'd readjust my estimate of it's value to around $1200.00 or so (probably less). If you get the chance to look under that A1 again, check the front cross member just aft of the engine compartment. That's a pretty important area as well. The "frame" which there...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Moose When you sya (well, wrote) the above, I'm reminded of my first mutt as I paid $3400 for it . It was a reweld but looked good and ran well. So, yes I think you can get into one that is a runner (most likely a reweld) within the price range you describe. You just...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    My first mutt was a 1967 M151A1 that was unrestored, rewelded & titled. It set me back about 3k and was a good runner. I did a complete tear down resto on that A1 and wound getting 11k for it. Still have a photo of it hanging on the wall next to my computer. My first A2 set me back 8k. It was...

    Looking into getting a Mutt

    Hello I've owned three of them 1) '67 M151A1 & 2) 70's M151A2s. I'd like to reccomend this site for all things G838 www.g838.org many of the guys who post over there are members here so there's a lot of cross board(er) action. The mutt in the above images is a fairly...
