I'm sure we all know plenty of horror stories on this topic. My favourite one is a true story. A bloke had been told to put in anti-freeze in his engine as the winter was just around the corner. He bought a litre of the green stuff and poured it into the hole in the rocker cover !!!
Myself and a friend advised him not to start the car. Fortunately (for him), he listened.

That's a swapped engine (60&1/2 or newer based on looking at the valve covers)..and an alternator..
Also a swapped grille.
Still, could be a twin to Matthew's truck

Oh man, I hate it when this happens...
The motor was rebuilt and the owner forgot to put oil in it. Do not know what damage was done to the motor.
