Ok so i am about to buy a 1981 cabriolet convertable in excellant condition except one thing the lady who owned it ran it hot and it shut off on her.She stated water was coming out of the bottom and she continued to drive it that it got so hot and shut off.Well i went to take a look at the car and noticed that the freeze plug was blown out of it.So my question is what is the chance that she shot the engine out or it just got so hot it shut down?I found one engine for the car for 500 if that is the case and she only wants 300 for the car.Also were is the freeze plug on that car i noticed that there was a circular opening on the bottom of the engine located on top of the block looks like a perfect fit for a freeze plug but something goes there it shouldnt be opened like that.
