You have a perfectly good chassis, but threw a rod and thrashed the motor case. Most of the aficionado I knew in Bakersfield would consider a new block cheap even at those prices because motors were hard to come by. some that I saw had welded patches and other external signs of repair. Not unusual to overbore and use sleeves or spraymetal/weld the crankshaft bearings
