Chassis plate for '64 Cortina

[4-Door Pete]

Hi, I'm after some help on how to go about getting a new chassis plate for my Mk1 Cortina?

I was getting my other Ford MoT'd at the weekend and the tester was concerned that the chassis plate wasn't fixed properly. And that they have to report cars with missing plates.

This got me thinking about the Mk1 Cortina I have just bought that was missing it's chassis plate (it has been resprayed). When I bought the car a couple of weeks ago I had no reason to doubt its was genuine but I got it HPi checked anyway and there was nothing sinister.

 

From what I can gather from the VOSA and the DVLA is that cars built after 1980 need to display a chassis plate but I don't want any hassle from the MoT testers once I get the Cortina back on the road.

 

I have seen blank plates for sale on ebay but can you get them stamped or is there something official I need to do?

 

regards

Pete
