Is this some type of proto type or is there a M151 with two mufflers?

The chassis looks right and the transmission looks right. Exhaust on wrong side, two mufflers. Bell housing and engine????????????????

That is very nice,

I would like to know what make of motor that is and if the Mutt
transmission was a straight bolt on or was a adaptor used

I blew up some of it looks like some kind of power assist in the rear and there seems to be what looks like
a disk brake caliper on the front. Scott out

I believe i dug these pictures up from a french website. (i mean really dig em out, thank god i am smart guy

) So it could be the 'poncin' type jeep build on a basis coming fom the M151.

I bet those tyres will will be some sort of french made tyre. Maybe used also on the M201 Hotchkiss ???
Anybody got a clue ??

Hey all
I am almost certain that the chassis in the posted pictures are the chassis of a Perini MUTT.
Perini in italy has been producing a M151A2 replica using transmission and suspension components from surplusparts but using their own chassis and a fiberglass body.

The tires in the pictures looks like Goodyear
I cant remember the name, but I have had to Land Rovers with these tires.
