The only problem would be on the Brazilian side. As long as the car is pre-1975, you can import and register it in California. It wouldn't make for a good business, especially with the current exchange rate. I wish I spoke Portugese, I'd have an easier time researching this. It would be worth it to me to bring one into the USA, I just wonder if there would be an obstacle getting the car OUT of Brazil.

Hi Jesse,

I know that some SP-2 (a classic VW car only built in Brazil) units were exported to Europe. I just don't know what is necessary to do that.

The problem will be to find pre-75 GTB models (GTB production started in 74) in good condition and and for a reasonable price. Some 75-76 in very good condition were been offered in Brazil for U$ 16,000-17,000.

You can try to contact the following company (they use to send cars from US to Brazil and maybe they are able to help you):
