Unhappy 88 cadillac eldorado biarritz

I have been forced to sell my 88 caddy because the waterpump went out and it overheated for only 1 mile before i found a place to pull over. i let it cool down all day then filled the radiator back up then drove it home about 5 miles and no it didnt overheat on way home at all. The next day i replaced water pump and when finished i checked the oil and damn if it wasnt white and creamy. Not shur if its a head gasket or you know a blown motor. She only has 120000 original miles on her. so here i am seeing if theres anyone who wants it cheep $800 obo theres lots of good parts for the pickins
