Can you leagaly reshell

in your case yes,
as you are "re-shelling" a complete car.
it all depends on the ammount of parts you use from a single donor car you can prove, if age related used parts then you get age related reg, if mostly new parts are used (95% i think) then a new plate may be issued at DVLA discression.
if car is built from numerous spares/cars/sources then again, an age related plate is issued due to average age of all parts used.
best thing to do is ring your local SVA / VOSA type testing station that carries out VIC tests etc.
Sean.
p.s thats the reason NEW shells are sold with no numbers!
brand new cars get crashed and re-shelled with technicaly new parts, i think 3yrs/waranty period counts, not so common nowdays but old skool pre2000 days this was common.
