OT: Should I buy the Dodge?

I have the oppurtunity to buy a 94 Dodge Intrepid for $800 from my work. Seems like that's a reasonable price according to Ebay, however this one needs work on the transmission and the paint is flaking off, primer still there (I wonder if I could get it repainted on Dodge's dime if it were a recall thing?).
The transmission doesn't always shift into 3rd gear or OD and doesn't always have reverse. I'm assuming I'd have to completely rebuild the tranny. Interior is in awesome shape for the high mileage it has.
This was a fleet vehicle where we'd use it to transport kids for 20 miles one way to school and appt's. It racked up the mileage quick and has about 180, 000 on the clock. I have the ENTIRE vehicle history right down to each oil change and the top end was redone not too long ago. In my book this is worth paying slightly more over a vehicle where you don't know the history.

Soooo, what do you all think?
