Thanks everyone, I expected a range of experiences from other's attempts but I don't really have anything to lose, and a lot to gain if it pays off. I got quite a lot of details and info on the car's history when I bought it, but it was mostly anecdotal. A couple of key pieces of that info have been supported by the recent discovery of information which led to finding the original owner contact details.
I'm travelling on business but will be making that call when home for the weekend, wish me luck!
