For the M151A2, any full size pickup (preferably a 3/4 ton) with a car hauler will suffice. You can rent just the trailer if you have access to a truck. The M151 is relatively light. For the M416 trailer, you can haul that behind just about any reasonably full size vehicle, although you will want a set of the magnetic lights with a normal trailer plug. Just make sure the wheel bearings were packed sometime in the past decade, and the tires are in good shape.
The M151 is around 12 feet, and the trailer has a 6 foot box. Theoretically, if you were to put the M151 all the way to the front of the trailer, removed the hitch and arms form the trailer, and blocked the trailer up so it was right behind the M151, you could fit both on an 18 foot car hauler, but it would be tight. You could try it with the trailer at front, and the hitch over the car haulers hitch, then the M151 with the engine pointing forward on the trailer, but you would have to make sure you have sufficient tongue weight.
On import from the US, you have to give US customs 3 days notice of the serial number and provide ownership/transfer documents to them upon crossing. The M151A2 is listed as a controlled good believe it or not (Demil code Q) but with the age, it is not likely to give you a problem.
