"how do you keep the number for an Austin Ten when the only significant Ten component is the front axle?"
By being economical with the actualitée!
I agree this is an egregious misuse or abuse of a system which relies on 99.9% of applicants being honest but if one complains too much about these relatively (?) rare cases they will have to start sending out inspectors to vet vehicle applications and builds and that will come with a hefty bill.
It would also make it almost impossible to do well intentioned rescue jobs of getting another "genuine but with iffy provenance" back on the road for our pleasure.
