I think the PPI shop will tell the owner the car is worth 2x what they are asking

This is a no brainer, go buy it right now! If you dick around with a ppi, you'll burn time and lose the car.

Looks like there is some documentation with the car, the owner said that he has a picture of the first title, stating the Ford Dealership that owned the car and also some photos of when it was pulled out of storage!
Also, I verified VIN and Engine match. Thanks again for all the guidance everyone.

And please report back.
If the car is half as decent as the pictures lead one to believe, you will make the steal of the century if you manage to bag it for 26k. :-)

At that price, for that car, what possible use is a ppi? NONE
Are you gonna pass if it is down a cylinder or leaking oil? NO As mentioned a ppi buys time for the seller to read the web or google prices, have second thoughts, or time for another buyer to get wind of it, plus the shop will surely let the cat outta the bag! Just go buy the car and drive home with a smile on your face!

Oh, and take it easy when you test drive.
I would't attempt any boost driving until I had checked and babied the car a bit back home in my own garage. She's probably a bit out if shape after all that sitting.

Ok! I hear you all, unfortunately... there's a tad bit more involved. Papers need to be signed by both parties of the divorce. Everything looks very promising though.

Normally I would never argue against getting a PPI....but I am in agreement with the Pelican Collective.
Do it. Do it now. Fingers crossed for you.
