Rather it is implied that an Age related plate could be obtained using the visible chassis number.
Given the modifications, I'm asking the forum if this is possible?, given the other info I have linked to.
Unless the system has changed since I helped a mate through this with a non-A7 car a while ago, a 'Re-Constructed Classic' is inspected and signed off by the relevant club's V765 rep as a "true reflection of the marque" The DVLA only see the paperwork, which IIRC included a 'built up vehicle report' where in this case the answer to all the questions would be manufacturer- Austin; Origin: -original period factory fitment . Can't see why that chassis and running gear wouldn't count as a true representation of a 1930s A7 special if it were finished in a period style.
