It might be worth it to take it to a shop and get it inspected. usually $50-75 bucks.

Plus you could get a compression check to make sure the motor is healthy.

Auto / 5 speed, both have there pluses and minuses. that's a personal choice, both can be a lot of fun.

check for rust, body work and paint can eat a budget quick.
plus make sure it's structurally sound, rust in the frame rails and strut towers can be terminal
