Most definitely American cars were shipped overseas for the American military stationed over there. The big 3 all had programs for the military to take delivery of their products in Europe. But military license plates were the standard size, so not relevant to the car in question necessarily.
Had a buddy over in Germany that had an AMC Gremlin that he bought new over there. As he was getting ready to rotate back to the states, he asked me if he should get the oil changed before shipping it. I asked him when the last time he changed oil was. He never had. I told him he should probably just sell the car and get another one when he got back in country....
