Nothing wrong with it if it was done legally, ie the new shells ID and number plates were used instead of the ones from the old shell. Or if it was done years ago :)

One of ours has been reshelled, but with a new shell back in 1992 when the Mini was only 16 months old!

we have a 65 mini that has been reshelled in the past
at a guess it's a late 70's shell

I agree, once the work is done to mine, the majority of the metal that rover installed. Won't be there, therefor if the majority of the metal is new.
It might as well be a re-shell no?
