is a blown bearing worth fixing ?

a repeating knoking and metal on metal sound coming from under the engine. Did i blow a bearing or two ?
i had to drive with low oil pressure and the result is trouble. I've invested alot of money and time this far so Is it still worth fixing ? If so, how do I fix this ?

940 auto trans won't shift into park ?

I have to start my 940 while in neutral or else the car will begin to drive in reverse! The park position is actually reverse and it won't shift into park at all. It seams like the linkage is out or ? Has anyone ever heard of this and what can I do about it ?
