It really depends when the conversion was carried out. In the mid 80s registration of kits was a bit hit and miss and there were quite a lot of cars retaining their donor vehicle details. It was used to avoid a "Q" plate.
The whole registration process was revised to remove these anomolies but I don't think it was retrospective.
Even now people are bending the rules to get cars though IVA and then modify them later. For example, no windscreen on a "Caterfield removes the requirement for wipers and demisting.

if the log book still states its a jaguar xj12 or xj6 then its obviously not correct?
As far as I am aware even back then you could only keep the donor reg if you used a certain number of parts from the original vehicle and even then the log book would have been changed from being a "jaguar" to something more appropriate ?
