I had a problem with water in my transmission oil. Bought a new radiator had someone put it in then went to take it to get a flush but the person who did the radiator said he could fix that too. So I agreed a week later on the highway my car lost full compression. HEAD Gasket is what I was told. Everyone I ask says Junk the car, but the man who put in the radiator says he can fix it hes doesnt have his own shop, but works out of his apt. Is it worth it?

Ultimately that will be your decision on wether to pay the repairs or junk the car. The best I can do for you is give you an estimate of the repairs. Most likely, the gasket failed due to overheating, when your coolant leaked into the transmission. An estimate is below for replacing your vehicle's head gaskets.
