Locations

Main article: Power armor (Fallout 4)

Worn by Clint at the Quincy ruins, it is guaranteed to be an almost full set of T-51 power armor. It is at the Overpass where Clint would normally be outside of his armor.
An incomplete suit is worn by Tessa at the nearby Quincy police station, though she may be wandering around nearby. Tessa's suit has only a T-51 power armor torso (possibly one that belonged to Clint) and the unique raider power armor right arm, Tessa's Fist.
Worn by an unnamed Gunner on the other side of Bradberton Overpass in Nuka-World, this suit is identical to Clint's. Nearby is a partial suit of level-dependent X-01 that can be worn by another Gunner if awoken.
Pieces can be bought from Rowdy at the Atom Cats garage.

Notes

The T-51 is the only power armor model whose basic A-tier isn't primarily rust colored. Applying military paint to the A-tier will result in the rust color.
In Far Harbor, a full set of T-51 power armor with multiple fusion cores lying around can be found in a cave next to a vertibird wreckage on the seafloor, along with some loot. The objects can only be reached using mods or console commands, as they lie right outside of the game boundary.
