Yeah, at least get the head pulled on the engine so you can see what happened. If the engine seized there should be at least some damage on the cylinder walls, not always, but usually. That will also let you know the condition of the valves.

Sorry you got stuck with a hacked up car, that is too bad. When something is cheap, always check the car out really good. If you see some things ghetto rigged, more than likely there are other things. Hopefully it is just some bent valves, but it probably is more serious than that. Good luck!
