Hi, I have a 1979 Maestro. It's VIN number seems to have disappeared off the frame, it appears to have been lost in a repaint before I bought it. Whereabouts should it be please?

Thank you all for the warm welcomes, really appreciated. I have been round the TT course in a bus, as a passenger in a car and as pillion but I am looking forward to riding it myself, it'll be one item ticked off my bucket list and it sounds like a Morini is a good choice to do it on. There looks to...
