    Can you disassemble it in USA and ship as repair parts?

    Only if you want to blow forty grand for labor and end up with a car
    less reliable than a yugo pulled from the bottom of a lake.

    Hey, I did not say you should disassemble ECU to single
    transistor and chips - but you could take off the wheels,
    battery, sits, remove brake pads and other small things
    and ship this incomplete body as a "replacement car body" :)
    In a second box you will have 4 wheels and battery + brake pads.
