alright for some of you who dont know, october i was in a wreck
 well brought the car home, and it started up and then died. tries to turn over, it is missing the radiator and the fans. I've heard it could be because i am missing the radiator, but idk. i changed spark plugs, spark plug wires, and dont know what else to try before i buy a new radiator. any help would be greatly appreciated |

Sounds like no compression to me. Could be that the timing got screwed up in the wreck. Set the crank to tdc and check the cam to see if it is right.
