It just depends on the municipality you are in. "non-driveable condition" vehicle bylaws aren't uncommon. The intention is not to prevent pusuing a hobby and having nicely restored classic cars, although the laws might be poorly written. It is to avoid the classic rustbucket with grass growing through the engine bay or "projects" sitting there for years with little progress *cough*
