It does look like you’re in the right area ish ,if I was you I would get some good quality duct tape and mask off an area both sides of the area you’ve already stripped leaving as much along that vicinity as possible then apply a good paint stripper on as much of the area not masked up may take a few coats as paint stripper is crap nowadays just make sure not to get paint stripper where you don’t want it then gently wipe off,I think the vin no should be there unless it’s been removed when some repairs have been don if you get a long area exposed back to bare metal without grinding you should have a good idea if it there or if it’s been cut out ,you’ve got nothing to lose apart from a few layers of paint . Good luckView attachment 62311

You Never heard of corruption ? The biggest question is how does he proceed if no vin found?Bigger question is how did it get out of the country without one..

If a plate then the DVLA are getting tight on these as they realise they are not part of the car.Is it on a plate on the strut tower, or engraved?
Nope. Bulkhead as per Derrick. Not seen it on the shock tower on the ZX‘s I’ve look at so far. But you live and learnIs that location used on any other member's cars I wonder?
It's lightly stamped into the tower but the A prefix and the Z at the end look a bit hand engraved!
The A and Z I think were put in as this is what is on the SA log book .
