Anyone know of some places that perform these? Are they helpful? I'm looking at buying a used private party car and the interwebz say these are essential... Any advice/experience is appreciated.

I have used Pro Auto Care (I-25 & Dahlia) for a long time and really like them. They do pre-purchase inspections but I'm not sure of the cost.
Can't help in private sales, but I've taken (or requested) used cars off one dealer's lot to another dealer or a pre-purchase inspection. $150 saved me at least a $5K headache in once case.
