Worth Buying??????

I am looking at a 1992 300te with 201000 miles that has been maintained through the dealer from time of purchase. The person selling just wants to get rid of it so he wants $1200. Here is what I found after looking at it:

1. Cracked windshield - no brainer
2. Climate control system not responsive at all. Although it sounds as the compressor clicks on when defrost is hit, just no blower.
3. Rear Windshield wiper not working.
4. Uneven tire wear on left front and rear wheels - outside edge wear.
5. Oil pressure gauge reads 2 when started then drops to near 0 while warm. Pegs upon acceleration.
6. Slight oil leak - not sure from where - valve cover looks clean.

Any comments would be greatly helpful.
