I picked up a Mini this evening which I think is a '77.

It was given a semi-restoration about 18 months ago and sadly the man who did the work on it passed away at the start of this year without ever getting to enjoy the fruits of his labour.

His family and I came to an arrangement and it's now in my shed.

The car was originally recovered from a scrap yard and came without any paperwork or number plates.

I need to try to get duplicate peperwork for it from our local County Council (the registration procedure here is different to in the UK).

The VIN plate looks like this .....



Can any of you explain what the various lines of information mean so I can fill in the form correctly and get the car legally on the road.

Thanks.
