Do you not think with that article and the information given, the owner in 1970s has essentially put things into the public domain? They could have held back the details. And also, it won't be a car record, as there is no registration. It would be a mere lodging of that chassis and engine for posterity...
I'm interested in the pros and cons. But what ARE the cons?
It's not your car. The reasons why the owner hasn't sent the details to the register could be many and varied but that's the owner's business. Having been 'disappointed' by the details shown on the register for one of my cars published without my approval I'd say you shouldn't have taken the initiative. Removing details from the register is rather more difficult than them being put there. Been there, done that. I have another car whose details aren't on the register. My previous experience is that I'm happy for that to remain the situation.
