No, it's not. As stated before: a 15-cwt CMP truck generally weighs less than 3.500 kgs, excluding load, but including driver, which permits you to register it as a car and drive it using your car licence.

I guess I have first to check with the road registration department the details.

Yes, do find out about local regulations permitting vintage vehicles on the road.

What about the prices in Europe, is there a great difference comparing with Aussie?
|
In general I think the prices in Europe are higher, just because the cost of living is in general. But you will have to take shipping into account as well. I know a transport company in Belgium who can get you a good quote from Melbourne to Antwerp.

Well, in Switzerland I've only seen one Ford Blitz so far. Are all of them in Holland/Belgium?

We have a good selection of CMPs in Holland, see some of them
here. The best CMPs, Fords, were taken back home by the Canadians so the inferior ones are more plentyful here.
