milky coolant.... oil mixing with coolant... from the headgasket?

is it worth fixing it? anyone have a clue as to how much THAT would cost?

if it's kinda on the expensive side.. i... i... i.... i guess.. i.. umm.. will sell her part her out maybe...

WHY?! she just rolled over 130,000 miles

It might be a head gasket, it might be a warped head or block. This happened on my sisters accord, but she let it run hot for too long and I think it warped the block. Anyway, it might be the head gasket. If it is, that is pretty easy(kind of) to do, it just takes a long time. Flush it and see what happens. If you warped the block or head you might as well forget it. You could try and find a decent one at a junkyard, but then you take your chances.
