If your local licensing office transferred it’s paper records to its local Council/city Museums or Archive Service they may have a documentary record of your registration number and matching chassis and original engine number. If your local Austin 7 Club can find the chassis number on
your chassis, you have a chance of getting the number back on the car.( but it won’t be transferable)
Also the Kithead Trust salvaged several sets of local registration office records and they too might be able to help.
However the whole thing is a postcode lottery as the majority of paper records held locally were destroyed. An old buff logbook would solve your problem but they do often get lost when
cars are exported.
There are ways to get “age related “ registration numbers , usually starting BF xxxx
But that’s another story, with lots of posts on that subject on the old forum.
