I have to admit there seems to be 1 or 2 additional M151's for sale these days than there used to be. Many are bringing high prices though. Here's another one I like in Ga. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AMC-M151 ... 3a53cb285f

Paint's not shiney enough for me and it's sort of under accessorized :!:

Hey Seabee,
If your looking for RoboCop or Judge Dread type over accessorized vehicles, my neighbor brought this one to my attention last week. It's a British Military issued Landrover 101 Forward Control. Guess there are still some here in the US driving around it it's customized configuration.

Get this, the customizing was to make it a futuristic Yellow Cab. :shock: :shock: :D
How cool is that? 8)

Ohh, PS: The vehicle behind it is the original configuration of the 101 landrover forward control

I have seen a few Christmas tree Mutts, but this one (ebay) is pretty high on the list. Best thing is when owners then claim it is authentic. First time I see an antenna bolted to the trailer...

Yep, that over spray near the top of the radiator is a deal breaker for me. I'll just have to pass. :D

Hey Top,
I still had all the pictures on an open browser tab, but when I tried to copy the pics, they were locked up with some BS image security site. When I tried to enlarge what I had, poof, I lost the visual I had. Must have been an ebay pull because of the propane 50cal MG it had mounted on it. Said semigloss paint, but it had a gloss equal to my Mountaineer. Sorry you missed it Top.
