hello peter
i have an ex canadian m151a2 and i think it's a pretty decent vehicle, handles well, and is generally a pleasure to drive. mine was a victim of the torch, but has been re welded properly. the best advice i can give you is to crawl underneath and have a real good look at where the body tub is spot welded to the uni frame, the cross members, and the suspension attachment points at the body. rust is one of the biggest problems with these vehicles, and the last thing one needs is four wheels with nothing between. if you find some rust, but feel it is in sound condition you do have an option. A.M. General produced an under body reinforcement kit which can be spot welded to the existing uni frame once the rust is cut away, but you'll have to look in the U.S. for one. best of luck, and keep us informed on the situation
cheers!!
