It was part of an estate for a veteran and sold off at auction. The MUTT runs great and does come with a title to register for the street. Mileage shows 70,590 and thought to be all original. According to the prior owner the vehicle had the engine rebuilt and it was repainted some time ago. The owner used it parades and military vehicle assemblies. All the lights, gauges, horn, and 4-wheel drive function normally. This MUTT even has the optional heater mounted between the seats. Included with the purchase are: 4 side curtains in excellent condition, “Vietnam-Era” military memorabilia, documents on the maintenance of the M151. Brief history of the MUTT starts after the Korean-War when the Army looked for a replacement of the Willy’s-Overland M38 style Jeep. It had to be a ¼ ton light tactical 4x4 vehicle to meet the demanding needs for the military. So, in 1960 Ford and Willys-Overland (which became Kaiser-Jeep) jointly developed and produced the M151 MUTT. Since Ford was busy making more money selling civilian cars, most of the M151’s were built by Kaiser-Jeep. The biggest difference between the Ford MUTT and the Jeep M38 was the independent suspension which gave a smoother ride and handled the terrain better. This M151 is a Kaiser-Jeep build. A few of the specifics include: 4-cylinder Over Head Valve engine rated at 71 h.p. 4-speed transmission with 5.7:1 first gear and 1-reverse 17.5 gal. fuel tank 2-wheel drive which shifts into 4-wheel drive Top speed of 60 mph Total weight capacity of 800#’s Ground clearance of 9 1/8” This M151 MUTT is a blast to drive, as you can see in the video and is great for parades or cruises. Please note there is a slight radiator leak from the bottom tank but does not seem to cause the vehicle to overheat. The Frame is original and appears solid except for one section (see photo). Otherwise, it starts and runs great! I am listing this vehicle as a representative (facilitator) for the owner, not a broker. All photographs and videos were taken by me.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE I have been an active seller of cars and other items for more than 19 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it! References can be provided upon request. Feel free to call me at 410-937-0719 Thank you J.D. Kurzmann
