If I were in San Antone and wanted a daily driver I'd need AC. Does the AC work at all? if it does it would be a deal. For around 2K you should be able to strip off the bumpers, some trim and the lights and get a decent paint job. I wouldn't go to that effort on a car that didn't have AC unless I lived out here on the cool coast

It will need to have the head off it there is water in the oil and if just the head gasket somone will be lucky, if a cracked #14 then its off to the bank to fix it. Unless you have another parts car available
