Good question.
I've seen antique airplanes "restored" where all they started with was the data plate. Nothing else of the original plane remained. Completely built with "new" parts, but to mostly original standards -- yet, still titled as a 1928 Whatever.
Similar changes made to some of Jay Leno's cars, where all that remains of the original is the exterior sheet metal and some of the interior. Frame, suspension, motor, etc., have all been modded. Sort of, any relation to the original is purely coincidental.
