His best bet then is to forget about the idea of doing anything automotive if he is only willing to look at the short term benefits of selling any items he produces.

As far as the key fobs, since Shelby American Inc owns the rights, I highly suggest you get their approvals in writing before you undertake anything. Expect to pay royalties to SAI for each item produced.
