Identification numbers of the car

Upon purchase of spare parts it is often necessary to specify identification number of the car, so-called VIN. This number is provided in documents of the car and beaten out in a motive compartment on the right depreciation rack. The firm plate with additional data of the car settles down behind the left headlight. Number of the engine is beaten out on the block of cylinders on the left side around a joint with the case pallet.
