[DeTomaso] Exporting Cars

I have sold a lot of cars and I have always sold them " as is where is" FOB
is a condition of business contracts that usually fever to goods involved
in export / import and are included in the terms of the contract. Personaly
I would not recommend attempting to add anything to the car in question (
like number plates or stamping a number on the block) the seller would be
opening himself up to charges of fraud which is criminal as well as civil
damages if the buyer suffered a financial loss as a result of the sellers
actions. If ( and it's a BIG IF) this had not all been discussed on an
Internet forum it might be possible to pull it off ( but I still wouldn't
advise it because it is inherently dishonest) but now that it has been
discussed on the Internet it is an indelible part of history and the record
of discussing the changed engine as well as ways to circumvent the problems
with the Chilean government's regulations is part of that record. It is
doomed to failure and consequences far worse the losing a sale of a
Pantera. Why not try to broker a sale of a Pantera that meets the Chilean G
overn ment' conditions  ( there are certainly enough Panteras for sale) and
make a fee for making the deal. the seller would profit, he wouldn't be
breaking any laws or moral codes and he would still have his Pantera to
sell to another buyer. As we used to say in the retail car biz " there's an
ass for every seat".
