    Early M151 Question

    I have been working on the restoration of an M151 and would like to be sure that I can get as much of it right as possible. My question is: What are the differences between the 151 and the 151A1? Things I know about are: A1 had turn signals and 151 didn't A1 had a blackout light in the right...
