Blowen Engine 700

The car is a thought to be 1989-1990, Its a 760 not verified engine model,Turbo ( Looks like a garret on there ) but i believe its the regina system as when i popped the hood the coil was mounted in the cetner of the firewall/top.

The previous owner which i somewhat know, overheated the engine on superbowl sunday, There is deff water in the oil no questions there, I am giveing him $200 for the car, it is in decent shape, to tears in the leather though it's woren, the head lineer is in its first stages of dieing, it has 140K on the OD, the paint is starting to go on the top of the car, there is a crack in the pass headlight and the turn signal cover is gone, other then that i couldnt find anything else wrong with it.

Other then replacing the Head which is expected on an overheat, what should i be looking, changing and doing to this guy while i am getting it ready for life again? Im sure i could think of things and write them, but i want your input as this will be the first time i have ever taken a overheated car and attempted a restore with it.
