New from NC

Thanks for a great forum, looking forward to posting.Just bought this 325 Magnum yesterday, can’t make out VIN on frame year, seller doesn’t know year model and decal on front cowl with VIN and date is rubbed or faded away. There is a emblem on cowl that says 1954 to 1999, 45 years. However when I go to the Polaris site 2000 is the first year I see it available so until I figure a way to read the VIN I’m hoping any parts ordered with that info will work.
