Here's what I do:

Ask for copies of the records.
Get a PPI done by a known-good shop. Get referrals from people in the area. A PPI from an average or bad shop is worthless.
Get an inspection of the body and paint from a good body shop. Mechanical shops can miss evidence of body and paint work.
Pick a weekend and fly out to pick it up and drive it home. You'll probably burn 3 days total.
