General project fiat 500

[shabba321]

I have recently purchased a Fiat 500 shell with out the registration all I have is the Vin number.


I have contacted Dvla with the Vin number 110f 2960369.


they have responded with a letter saying they do not hold any records for the Vin number I have provided.


I needs some advice on what to do not sure on the year of the car but hopefully can locate with the Vin Number.

Maybe check the number again and compare it to the chart on this page: https://www.fiat500club.org.uk/home/chassis-numbers-fiat-500-and-giardiniera-1957-1977/
Most likely a 1971 F/L

That sounds like an engine number

The vin is actually a chassis number and is a shorter set of numbers. From memory...

As well as issuing documents, the DVLA run a side line in losing things.
The chances are this vin number has fallen through the cracks and been removed from their database.


If you contact a fiat club with a list of Fiat 500 VIN numbers they will be able to verify your car was manufactured by Fiat and imported into the country. The DVLA accept evidence from these Clubs.


I had a member of the Fiat 500 Club UK verify my VIN number so I could have the car classed as historic back in 2006. It was quite easy sand only took a few weeks.

That's the one I got for my car that verified the VIN which I needed for export to the US. Might be able to get what you need.
