Tracing and buying an old number plate

[Rollin]

Is there a way of acquiring the registration number of a car that vanished from all records in 1987?

As far as I know, there isn't, I think at present they get scrapped?
Though if there's money to be raised things may change.

Not unless you find the car with the plate on, and restore it/MOT it/tax it.
