It was a little daunting to tackle the project at 60 but I did it and many other projects to it. I now consider myself very knowledgeable about the car. It now has 130K on it.

got you beat, I was 66 when I did mine in the carport in winter of '17. Same sort of thing, tho mine didn't come down with intermix--just got really hot and I didn't want to trust it.
To the OP, sorry your engine is really and truly ruined. All sorts of bad things happen when it over heats that bad. Rings lose temper and don't seal, valve seals leak, things get warped.
You have some hard choices to make. :ah::ah:
