Without seeing it run, what's to say it's not hurt, or all the good parts have not been swapped? It may have been a record holder yesterday, but I think we have heard a few questionable transactions that a solid car could no longer perform as advertised. You won't know without someone or yourself seeing it. Also hearing it start and idle and not going down a track means absolutely nothing. If someone wants to sale it they would also have no problems with these suggestions. Unless it's a roller.
For the sale or deposit. A written and signed contract by both parties. A statement with wording "Deposit refundable in full if vehicle does not meet purchasers expectations upon inspection prior to purchasing". Some language to show this is not a buying it sight unseen, as you most likely will have to put a deposit down to show buyer you are not just a tire kicker. This is similar to what I did when buying my trailer several states away.
Good luck it's too bad we can not trust anyone anymore.
