A used car will cost you one way or another. If you go through the steps of a PPI, the seller will know you are serious. Just let him/her know you are interested in the car pending the PPI. After the PPI, you can let the owner know about the deficiencies and offer to give full price (if reasonable) if all deficiencies are fixed, or less costs of repairs.
My 85 cab was purchased w/o PPI as my mechanic said the price was so low, there was no way I could lose on the car. Repairs/upgrades to the car include tach and speedo repair, rotors and pads all around and new Bilsteins. It was also sent out for a small rust repair to the A pillar and a new top is being installed right now.
