050118 Tu 10:55 Thanks,"Merci" Jacques, I take it that the VIN is stamped in the metal of the 'lip' of the gutter just above the 2 (ignition) coils. Is this the only place to find the VIN stamped? I wonder when VIN plates were first attached? Sorry don't have a Vespa 400 any more to register.by Blanchard - Vespa Microcar Forum
