Locating my old Mini. CPX 50 B

I've just joined so forgive me if this should be elsewhere.

Many years ago, I owned (I still own it actually!) a 1964 Mk1 850 Mini 'CPX 50 B'. My late step-father had a garage business in Midhurst, West Sussex where it was kept. I moved and lost track of this car. Yes, I know, I can hear you all sigh. DLVA still have it on their books so to speak.

Could it have been scrapped without my knowledge?

Any help, advice, suggestions etc would be wonderful. I would love one of my children to have this car one day.

That's an odd one. You still own the V5 for it I take it ? It's not been taxed for 25 years and it's not on the insurance database. You can only presume it's either stuck away in a barn somewhere (?!) been broken for bits or been used to reshell another car ??

I'm a Midhurst boy (though in NZ now) what was the garage? I don't remember the number plate.
Niall Cook (ex Dunsfold) might know about the car?
