David is correct. If the chassis is not stamped , buy a set of number punches and stamp it yourself.

If you phone MMC they should be able to give you the chassis number of your car. They may need the engine number and possibly its original registration (and you will have to have a lot of patience , MMC are notoriously poor at answering queries that take some time to investigate)

Alternatively the chassis number should be on the Bill of Sale that you got with the car? It might be lurking somewhere in the paperwork. As David says it is a 4 to 5 figure number prefixed a capital R.

I think the plate on the toolbox was not used until quite late. My 1999 car has one with both the VIN number and the engine number on it. Your car might not have ever had one, but there is no reason you couldn't get one made up using your data.

Do you want a photo of this plate from my car?
