Donor with a perfectly good shell...
Perhaps i'm being over zealous but:
I have a Sierra in very good condition that I intend to break for engine/gearbox, a few other parts and then use the identity for age-related
plate.
It does appear to be REALLY rust free though. So I expect to take the doors, bonnet and tailgate off and try to sell them on for Sierra resto's
etc. It would seem a real waste to just weigh them in.
However the actual shell seems to be in amazing condition too - literally no rust at all that I can see. So I am wondering if that would be of use to
anyone - either for building a competition car - or reshelling another Sierra. (it is a 5-door though, so not ripe for Cossie replica...!)
Assuming someone might want it - if I were to sell the shell (minus the VIN plates/chassis number/etc) for reusing would that have any implications
for me then getting an age-related plate for my kit?

You may also need to confirm requirements for getting a age related plate as I don't think it Is easy on a alternative chassis kit car now days

Sierras are raced as saloon stock cars and good shells are few and far between. It would make a good national saloon or lightning rod. I'd
advertise it on the track web site closest to you. It should make a decent price rather than you just weighing it in.
