chassis numbers.
Hello.
I was asked to start a new thread about chassis numbers instead of using an old thread.
I have bought a C1 that needs complete restoration.
Needs an registration based on original forms and car+body. Also have the original number plates.
The engine is one year later than the birthday of the car. All the ancillaries with number are correct for the engine of that year.
The above is based on all the info I have found on this forum.
VIN plate on the steering wheel is correct but the chassis number(under the seating rail) is unreadable. At least partly.
I want to correct this but cannot see what type/font the numbers and letter is. And what is the height?.
Does somebody know.
Thanks.

Thanks for reactions.
I have to add the following. To find the number I went the brutal way. Cutting an opening in the threshold. Because the chassis and body are still one unit. When seperating ( if possible) the Goverment can say reject the car. So I am in a full circle. Car bought from big respected firm with all paperwork.
and I know that I am doing is on the edge.
All for an perfect car within some years.
Info needed.
