Best possible advice.

Call the US customs/immigration people and ask for the rules in
writing. This is the only way to get the correct do's and don'ts
with no surprises. Also ask about all duties, taxes, levies, etc.
Be a shame to go to all that work and expense only to find out that
the car will wind up at the shredder because you did or didn't do
something.
