This where the problems come in.
To the unsuspecting public it may be to all intents and purposes be a 240z but if it ever came to auction I wonder what legal recourse the purchser would have.
The best practice in my mind would be for cars to be identified by the shell type as this is the major component.
I think this would be the best for the marque as a whole and would certainly push up the prices for cars like Robs which are original.
I have nothing against re-shelling cars, sh*t that is what I would do if forced to!

I know of a '240Z' on a '72 plate that is actually a 280Z. A very 'sound' car bodily and mechanically but.....
