Default 95 through hell and back

i have a 95 that had the head gasket blown, I wasnt realy in a hurry to fix it but my little cousin wanted to to change the head gasket (hes a mustang lover like me) . Well Needless to say the motor locked up,.... Somehow he took worked on it and got the motor to unlock and we proceeded with changing the head gasket from there, we got the heads shaved down and new gaskets from there up. that was september, Sometimes this car just wants to ride.... then theres times it wants to stay in the stable for instance.. New alternator, New started, New lower ball joint, New Front coil spring....
whats next? here ya go... clutch is going out, Loud thus from rear could be cc clamp, And overheating now with brown oil looking stuff in the radiator and looseing fluid. I seem to have oil dripping from somewhere also.....
I need some help... maybe i should just give up and get another car....... I really beleive with the way the motor wants to run at times theres hope... and the car itself isnt in rough shape, a few minor scratches and 1 tiny tiny dent that can be pulled. plus i paid under $500.00 for it....
Whats should i do? and Where should i take it to get a COMPLETE redo list?

Go to the junk yard, grab a 99-04 3.8L motor or grab a 4.2L from an f150, install and have fun
