The reason they don't do that is some states have issues with titling the shells. In fact, in most states they must be registered like a kit car or "home built" vehicle. However, using a new shell to rebody a rusty 67 Mustang is not legal either as you cannot legally transfer the VIN form the old unit to the new body. sort of a "catch 22"

Still I don't understand why someone pays big money for a "Shelby" that is NOT a Shelby...
