Welcome to FTE.

The VIN shown on that plate is wrong.

It probably should read "1FMC U 14....".

The VIN is 17 digits.

With the "U" in place, try this:

https://www.decodethis.com/vin/1FMCU14T3KUC72738

There should be a white plastic certification label on the door jamb with the full VIN, transmission and axle codes and more.

Yes you are right, U is missing. On a Windows plate VIN is complete and ok. I do not have a door sticker unfortunatelly, one of the orecious owners have to takę it.
i hope Thatcher somebone who have option to check my cars details missing with sticker will help me here and dekoder IT from VIN.

just in basic info as most decoders, it is not showing my specific car (trim color, car color, spec like a/c, power windows etc)
I am looking for detailed FORD decode with all info which was on door sticker and etc
Of course I am grateful for your help, thanks

I already have it but there are 2 main differences between report and real life.
On the oldest photos of my car I was able to find in internet it was black/silver (in report blue/blue)



Now it is light bronze/orange but for sure it have been not blue (paint levels on the photo below)

Paint check showing it was black for sure

and interior was (and is) ruby red (in report blue)



That's why I am trying to investigate it other way than Marti report.
All the other things on Marti report are ok and in line with my car.

Marti report is how it rolled off the assebly line.

The certification lable is gone--that would have had the color code etc.

AFAIK there is no other source for the info you seek other than the prior owners.

I already have Marti report, my problem is that all specs of my car are same as in report except 2 things: exterior color and interior trim

Exterior color
Marti report

Real life (when it was imported to Poland from Germany I hope in 1995

Paints check when I have started rebuild of whole car (now it is brown/orange)

Paint check showing it was black for sure

Interior trim
Marti report

Real car


That's why I am looking for alternative report to check why Marti report and differs.
