Hi Ken,

 

Good to have another Dodge owner here!. I'm afraid none of the 3/4 WC's are MOT exempt,I know there are those who have somehow managed it but in the event of any accident or insurence claim I don't know how you would stand.

 

I know it's tempting to go for not having an MOT if possible but if there ever was a serious accident involving an MOT exempt classic MV it could have serious effects on the hobby in general.

i think the empty weight would be 2.3 tons for wc51/52 roughly

According to TM 9-808 weight of a WC-52 less driver is 5,550lbs.

Thanks again Matt,

Took your advice and got an MOT for the Dodge it was very easy UK reg now, all in under 3 weeks.Not worth the hassle with any insurance claim.

Thanks again.
