That's exactly what I did -- I drew up a "statement of responsibility." Even included a window of time during which I could have a mechanic look over the vehicle and inspect for damage. I had a lawyer friend look it over and she said the same thing as Welmoed -- "it will stand up in court, if necessary." Be sure to include the VIN in the document, and have someone witness the business owner's signature if possible.
