I'd be a lil concerned that its more than just your head gasket, if its burning a rediculous amount of coolant (white smoke) then chances are theres a crack in the cylinder head. Once he pulls it apart he might need to replace the head, which the way this guy is chargng you is going to be expensive. Personally I would cut my loses and maybe buy something inexpensive until I came into some money. If you looking for a $500 car I know of one that actually sounded half decent.. It would likely be fairly reliable although its pretty fugly..
