Need M151 pics both original and correctly restored

Post by matt506 » Thu Nov 16, 2017 5:57 pm

I pretty much figured mine is a M151. I believe it is a 1961. Most all info on these is with 151a1 and a2 picks and very little is differentiating. I could use a few picks of originals and properly restored M151s. Motor color? Componants? Thanks Matt

Try the G838.org forum. If you have not already found this information. I have a 62 M151 and Rickf has been a great help as well as Hambone and others.

Try Elasser7122's restoration thread over on the G838 - http://g838.org/viewtopic.php?t=8828

Will need to view with google chrome and a photobucket extension to get around them blocking the images. If I remember correctly he scored 99.something % at an MVPA convention setup as an MP vehicle.

Main differences that distinguish a straight M151 are listed at http://g838.org/public_html/wiki/doku.php?id=m151

A cheap book that has pictures of the different variants is https://www.amazon.com/M151-Mutt-Action ... words=m151 but most of them, if not all, are available through an image search online.

surveyor, check the second G838.org link. It does not seem to work correctly. The top portion of the screen seems corrupted.

You have to scroll down past the gibberish to see the info. It's been that way ever since I joined that site.

I can promise you the all of the images in this (my) book are not available on line.

I'll concede that. I hope there was no offense when I said "cheap." I should have worded it as inexpensive. :)
