Normally when you have bad compression the consensus is to rebuild the engine. Sorry but its one of those things since you're in there, fix everything. It all matter if you wanted the car for a daily or a project car and how much money you want to throw into the car. These cars are pretty pricey even when you do the work yourself since they are older and tend to need more parts to be replaced. The best thing to do is save and save and find a low mileage one or a medium to high that has been taken care of meticulously and has receipts of maintenance and repairs like i did.
