Hello everyone! I am in the process of building a custom 3D-printed kit car. I have just finished the tubular chassis and would like to request the VIN number for the chassis. The construction is being done in Poland, so I won’t be able to physically show the chassis in the UK. Will this be a problem, or will good photos of the chassis be enough?

Are you referring to the inspection of the chassis that has to be carried out once the DVLA allocated vin has been stamped on the frame?

If so then, there is no requirement that the garage who inspect the stamping and signs the letter has to be in the U.K. so a garage local to you should be ok.

The DVSA will also inspect the vin themselves as part of the IVA test.
