If it's just one cylinder then chances are you can get her back up and going for under $500 in parts. Most shops charge about $250 IIRC for a sleeve installed, and a piston is usually less than a $100. Another $150 for agasket set and you're back in business.

Bottom edge of the piston is pretty well jacked up as well as a chip in the face of the piston. Ring material is smushed/welded to the cylinder wall, as well as scoring. Light scoring on the top cylinder on the port side as well. All of the plugs except for one were cleaner than usual, almost like they had been cleaned with carb cleaner. Compression on the bad cylinder registered 0 psi while the others were 95+/-psi cold.
