CADC selling M151A2

Had to ask.

Nice straight uncut body...would be a good start for a project

[Wayne Hingley]

I saw this one parked in a compound in Suffield a few months ago. I had to look twice to make sure my eyes were not tricking me.

Selling price is listed at $10,012. Someone wanted it twice as bad as I did.

Of course, the M151A2s were not supposed to be sold to the public by DND. It would seem enough years passed that nobody remembers this direction.

So somebody has, I believe, the only Canadian M151A2 that was actually sold as a vehicle as opposed to salvage.

Let us just hope that whoever bought it appreciates what they have and don't do anything silly like turn into some sort of fantasy vehicle.

I suspect whoever bid 10K for it knows what they are buying, especially considering the engine is in pieces and the rear diff has the yoke and bearing cap off it. Something isn't right about the roll cage either....it appears to have been solidly welded to it's mounts. No doubt there will be a myriad of little pieces gone or worn, but in the end, it is a nice uncut body. I don't even see the usual rust holes through the front crossmembers. If the mileage given of around 7000 is correct, it may have lots of potential.


What worries me is if an American bought it and is bringing it South. All it's Canadian identity will likely be erased.

The M151A2 is a demill Q, The Demilitarization Code (DMC) of 'Q' is assigned to items that are not controlled under the Defense Production Act (DPA), but are listed on the Export Control List (ECL), Group 1, Group 2, Group 5 (article 5504) or Group 6 or found in the US Commerce Control List (CCL) 500 or 600 series. Destruction is a requirement unless the items can be transferred to an authorized person.

I low bid to track the sale. I had to factor in travelling 4 days out and 4 days back dragging a ton and a half of awkward steel. Working in January on the Prairies.
