The VIN code is imprinted to the car body in one place only, on the floor near passenger seat. It is fairly comment for barchettas (and many other cars) that the VIN gets damaged by the water that goes under floor matt. In case of barchetta it is strongly advised to keep it in a dry garage, as otherwise it is close to impossible to avoid water ingress, in long terms.
If VIN is not readable, you will have to contact your local car registration authority. Sometimes it is still possible to read the traces of VIN by an expert in a special workshop. Then there will be option of relabeling VIN in a different location on the body of the car. Needless to say, it will cost money.
If not possible to read VIN at all, you may be out of luck, it will depend on local regulations and practices (if you know what I mean :)

Here's a screenshot with locations of id plates. There's id plate with VIN on the left wheel arch, but this is a secondary and does not replace the primary VIN on the floor.
