Well, there are modified Porsches and modified Porsches. What some dude does in his garage at night after work, and what Magnus does to his cars aren't necessarily the same thing. The Singer cars are in a whole universe of their own.
A DIY backdate might have value to the right customer, but I'm guessing the market would be smaller than for the original, unmolested car. Smaller market size, plus higher asking price (reducing the market size more) means a bigger risk for those doing the backdate to make money.
Now for those who like their car a certain way, and don't plan on selling? Well, they can do whatever their pocketbooks allow, yes?
