For example, if one wanted a Land Cruiser 76 so badly that would be willing to work around to match its body to a Lexus NX300h floorpan.

That will all depend on which serial number is the surviving car, which features remain in the final vehicle, and which regulations need to be followed for the country in question. My project is fine in the USA, but in the UK the government would have probably confiscate the whole thing from me and crush it.
