IANAL but would think the proper thing would be to fully document exactly
what was done, provide it to the prospective purchaser, and if purchased
retain a signed copy of the document. That said, there is no question that
sometimes "restoration" becomes excessive since every thing opened up
reveals more work to be done. Exactly when one car becomes another seems to
be a legal question but seem to recall once brass era car starting with one
wheel and some of the drivetrain.
Never have gotten into it but know that Florida at least has a class of
title for "constructed" cars. Did once spend almost a year getting a proper
title for a car inherited from a close friend.
