Hi , write or take a letter to local DVLA tell em you are building a kit car & proposing you chassis no & ask if O.K. with them. Seems some say ok other will allocate a chassis number for you to stamp.

cheers D

If you make up a 17 digit no. composed of no.s & letters which is unlikely to be duplicated this should be satisfactory to them





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Needs to be permanent on chassis at front end drivers side normally in addition to a stamped plate. Keep it tidy though & minimum size for teaps cant remeber the size at the mo. someone will confirm. as you say once approved!

When inventing a chassis number, certain characters should not be used - I think "I" (as in India) "O" as on ostrich. But do a searcch- this was covered quite recently

Minimum 5mm letter height and no 'I' or 'O' (substitute 1 and 0 [zero]) as stated

yes it has so I won't bother retyping.


I made a plate and riveted to scuttle; other one was stamped on to a cleaned up area of chassis then varnished over to stop it rusing.

I stamped a plate and welded to chassis. DVLA dont like rivet on (or at least Stockton dont). I also engraved the number to an easier to access rivetted on plate so SVA man didnt have to go looking.



After SVA and registration i also put the chassis number on loads of components and other areas of chassis inc loads of hidden places.
