I’m a single mother, language teacher,journalist, work hard , like all of us, taking care of my family ... my 51 Chevrolet Styleline, daily driver, needed an engine rebuild.

You won't, at least not practically. First and foremost there is no possible reason why your "daily driver" is an almost 70 year old car. Second, if you choose to have such a car, you must equally accept that parts and components may be very hard to to find resulting in added expense and delay. As a hard working single mother, your better choice would be to spend your money on a late model car thats more efficient and reliable.
