Okay to drive with P0015 and P0016?

I'm considering buying a parts rig that is throwing P0015 and P0016 codes. It runs and is located about 30 miles from my house. Would I be risking damaging it if I were to drive it home or should I cough up the $300+ to get it towed?

Those codes are not found in the RAVE (the factory workshop manual for the DII).

I'm relying on information that the seller gave me. I'll try to pull the codes myself when I check it out.

Turns out it has a few misfire-related codes and an O2 sensor code. It has some rust but the bits I care about are in good shape so I decided to get it.
