Free M151 project for active duty/ vet or Youngster

Unread post by homerguy » August 2nd, 2009, 6:12 pm

Uncut 1960 M151 stripped body , NO engine or transmission :shock: . Free to active duty service person/retired vet or young man or woman w/ a parent that can help them complete the project. The body needs some repairs,but the frame rails are very solid. FOB Marietta,Ga.

That depends on who you ask. It certainly had some needs but I've seen (and bought) much worse

I just got the tub back from the sandblaster and there are a few rough spots but mostly in the floor which is definately fixable. The rest of the body turned out great from blasting and I am gonna start some metal work today! Thanks again for this great project! I'll do my best to post pics and updates along the way.
