there is a way. i knew a body shop guy a few years back who did it with a mustang. took either a plain gt or 6cyl. and made it into a shelby. every single nut and bolt, every single clip, stitch, and thread has to be exactly identical to the original. i dont know if it available for every car, but it was with a shelby. it has to be authenticated, researched, all sorts of things. im sure it has to be either witnessed, or completely torn down, verified, and built up again.
