You would have to have the car disassembled into the rolling chassis, engine, and drivetrain. Ship them in separate containers. It is then considered a bunch of auto parts. Reassemble in the US and register. Mind you there is quite a bit of paperwork involved in some places and that the car will carry a "collectible" label for the rest of its days. It will be issued a VIN and everything though. Something like this. Hope that this helps. |
Guess you have no clue whats been going on the last 6 months now. Customs/NHTSA/DOT/ICE is going after all the gray market cars that were imported via this process. They are catching containers with cars, holding them and not releasing them. They have gone after folks who have "kit cars." A OEM manufactured car is not a kit car. Kaizo was a company that was importing vehicles doing this process. Do a search in here, we've been talking about this shit for a while now and what's going on. Do a search on threads I've started...
