Is this worth it?..

Hey you guys, quick question.
Found a DA on clist, he said he'd take about $1000 for it, which is relatively cheap for the area.
Here is the ad:
http://norfolk.craigslist.org/cto/3988471433.html

List of problems:

Windshield needs to be replaced due to cracks. I got a quote at $175 installed.

Needs 2 front tires, but I might have some steelies and tires laying around somewhere. If not, $30 a piece for used tires.

He said he jumped the ecu plug or whatever for the CEL and it came back as O2 sensor, which, I thought would be a noticeable change in daily driving ability, but he didn't mention anything about it acting bad.. $50 for the sensor. and depending on if I do it or not, $60 for labor. (Are the DA's O2 sensors where the 95's are?)

Typical cam seal leaks, can get PWJDM seal for about $20.

Speedometer doesn't work. He said it doesn't jump around at all, it just straight up doesn't work. Thinks the cable is broken, which is about $175 installed. I wouldn't know how to do it.

Said it needs an A/C compressor and a recharge line to get the a/c running.

All in all, what do you guys think?

I would, but money is super tight right now, and my girl and I are about to get a house.
Figured I had right around a grand, and need a car as I sold my dc to pay some bills.

It sounds decent you can probably look how to fix all that stuff online too

Make sure you check all CELs yourself

Ask to do a compression test
Inspect the timing belt
Critical engine parts etc

What do I look for on the timing belt? and you can't see it with the valve cover on, can you?

Also, cananyone link me to the cel code guide to a da? 93 b18?
