The Location of the Chassis Number Plate on a 1983 Mercedes

The chassis number of a 1983 Mercedes is six digits and can be found on a metal data plate on the car or on a data card in the owners documents. If you need to order new parts for your Mercedes, it is necessary to provide the chassis number. The first three digits of the chassis number represent the body style. The last three numbers represent the specific car, such as a coupe or a convertible.
