You have to see the car in person, sit in the car, and find out why the paperwork is "complicated." Just hop on a flight, stay one night, and fly home. No big deal, and it could save you a mountain of headaches. Listen to us on this -- we've seen more stupid mistakes made on this hobby than you would ever believe.

i have bought a lot of cars sight unseen from dealers but all were normal brand cars. old muscle, modern exotics, and others but nothing like this where so many hands were involved in the build.
thing i know
shelby american good
genesis iron blocks good
top loader good
20 miles could be good/odd
one owner 20 miles odd
T&E well known
performance engineering good name / lot of experience
ebay auction 75k unsold
buying sight unseen ****ing insane
worth the risk unknown

It's a buyer's market right now -- you won't have trouble finding a nice car. Twenty miles in eleven years is a red flag. "Complicated" paperwork isn't reassuring either. If I couldn't see it myself, or have a trusted co-conspirator see it, sit in it, and stream a feed to me, then I would pass. A 20 mile engine hasn't even been dialed in yet, so it would be hard to tell on a quick drive whether it was a crappy build or one that just needs the carb, valves, timing and plugs played with... especially if the gas is ten years old.
