Just curious who bought this? Looks well sorted for a fair price.

It probably has a POC log book not a PCA log book. If you bought it with the thought of racing PCA events you would be in for a big surprise.

The car had a cracked and leaking fuel cell and it was leaking oil at the base of number 6 cylinder requireing the engine to be disassembled from to the case.
The seller did not disclose this.

I'm buyer. In my opinion the car was not honestly represented.
I spoke to the seller various times about the current condition of the car. He claimed it was the same as the photos. I received new photos and the car looked to be in similar condition. I asked if it leaked any oil or had any other issues to disclose and the answer was no. I also received additional photos under the engine and it appeared dry. The seller claimed it was pretty much ready to go with new tires, fluids etc.
I wasn't expecting a mint car by any means....it's a track car.
I expected to find some issues and had planned to upgrade the car from here. Much to my surprise there was two big undisclosed issues.
The fuel cell was shot. When I pulled the car out of the transporter I could smell the fuel. It was leaking every where. A pretty obvious problem. The second much larger issue is a major oil leak at the base of cylinder 6. This will require the engine be taken down to the case for a total re-seal. $3500 for the fuel cell and another 8-10k for the re-seal.
To say the least I'm pretty pissed.
The log book is a POC log book not a PCA log book.
I talked to the seller today. We are going to talk more in the next couple days. If I would have known the true condition of the car I would still have bought it, however I would have offered 10-12k less.
I'll post more soon. Hopefully the seller will make it right.

I've been through somewhat similar circumstances buying used race cars, I assume the worst anymore. Good luck resolving this, sounds like you are owed some $$
