M151 Center Console Box

Post by doctordirt » Sat Feb 26, 2022 10:27 am

Back in the day when the Army used M151's as the primary small tactical vehicle there was no glove box or lockable storage on the vehicle. To solve that problem one of our maintenance shops built this center console for the 1/4 ton. If you don't have a gun mount, it fits between the front seats and leave plenty of room to shift.

When you had to park and leave your vehicle somewhere, you chained the steering wheel, but this was a good place to lock up the pilferables like radio handsets, OVM, raingear, and such. Since you could not wear/carry your .45 into the PX or commissary it may have been used, on rare occasion, to secure a piece. :)

Since my remaining M151 has an M4 mount I can no longer use the console. I am asking $50 plus shipping from 08809. If you are going to either the Mt Bethel or Pocono show I can also deliver it there. It shows a little honest wear on the paint, but is in excellent condition.
