I am selling my 1992 Lumina Z34. I've included all details regarding this car along with pictures of every angle on a website. If interested please check it out.

could you post a picture of the engine and engine compartment? Was someone driving the car when the timing belt went? Is the engine toast? or just some valves bent.
I will take some photos of the motor and add them to the website tomorrow. As for the other questions, yes, the car was running and just stalled when the timing chain broke. I don't believe there would be any bent valves because the timing belt had broken once before and the cams were re-timed and the belt was replaced and the car ran fine after that. I believe that there is clearance between the pistons and valves when they break. There was no noise when the chain broke, the car just shut off. Engine will turn over but when harmonic balancer is turning intermediate shaft does not turn. I determined that the timing chain had broken. I have not gone any further than removing the front timing belt cover.
Considering the condition of this car both externally and with the new interior, and all work done recently, I am hopeful to be in the range of around $1,250.00. There are about 20 photos of this car on the website, I've added some photos of the engine today at someone else's request too if you want to see them.
