M151A2 Restore
Hello Al
Well after many years the restoration of my 1974 CDN M151A2 has started. Jason and his Dad are the main restorers with me getting in the way once in a while. It is now almost stripped and ready for sandblasting. While stripping, found a 1976 penny under the radio wiring guard (on the back floor) Will glue it in as part of ts history when complete. The main areas of rust are the front floors, battery box and the front cross member. Thanks Eric

Eric,
I think you should call the vehicle 1 Cent because of it.

But what if it is of the feminine gender?
Hi Eric
Always good to see another restoration begin. Now to Robin's idea for naming it, you could always go with Penny. Cheers Phil

Wife name my first CMP 40 Years ago
Hi Eric
Every MV needs a name, my wife took one look a picture of what was to be my 1st CMP 40 years ago and said "what a BEAST" still have the HUP and the wife. Both of them are part of me. You might also say that I had the Beauty already my wife. BEAST is what the HUP got for a vanity license plate Talking MVs if you have BEAST you must have BEAUTY in this case a C60S Pat 13 CMP, andit got the plate BEAUTY. When the 3rd truck joined the family a Pat 12 C60L I polled the family for for a name at first we were thinking "and the" or "& the" as a plate but it would only may sense if the two other trucks were parked oneeither side of it. So they family decided on CANADA in honor of it's history. But back to the M151 hope you will keep us posted on Jason and his dad progress. Cheers Phil

M151 restoration
Hello
Well it seems that the vehicle had a front fender AMU mount, which would give it three radios. Similar to the one for the M38A1. By chance has anybody seen one of these rear items? We have found the base plate, which is different than that on the M38A1. Thanks Eric
