factory specification for a pick-up

Post by isalei »

I live in Norway and have recently imported a 1971 pick-up (Morris Minor). Presenting to the authorities is always a bit of a challenge and it proved to be the case this time. An imported commercial vehicle needs a certificate or declaration from the factory which includes its "all up" weight including its 8cwts, fuel and passengers. I managed to complete the registration, but am currently limited to a load of 100kgs. Isn't that boring!

I am sure that some form of document has been issued by the factory. Any ideas where I can find it?

Thanks Brian,

This could be useful. Do we have any Danish members? The rules may be similar to Norway. A copy of another countries registration for a pickup with "all up weight" would be another way to go. Another possibility could be a contemparary brochure or handbook. I will keep serching before having another round with the authorities.

Heres an original brochure on ebay that has lots of tech spec on the back and may be of use.
