I am considering buying a car and want to export it to france, is am moving there. My problem is, the car i plan to buy has no documents whatsover. Its a u.k. spec lhd brought over to u.k. from holland for a film company, was used to make a famous film. It was purchased to used for filming and was not on the road and the owner ( a provider of cars for filming ( is totally legit)) does not have any paperwork,possibly a bill of sale, as he did not need them. Probably dont even know the old number plate either. Would i be able to register it in france, there is a vin number and chassis number. Thanks

I doubt that there's a person who will read your question that is qualified to answer. Don't take the word of anyone except a lawyer practicing in France. Some American laws are vastly different than French laws.

Sounds like the car was never registered to go on a public road.
You will have toregister it somewhere before driving it. Might aswell get someone to transport it to France on a trailer and then register it in France.
You may have difficulty in getting it registered if it is UK spec and will have to change things such as the lights. Is this car right hand drive?
