Unhappy Help!! Tranny Blown !!

Aight here's the deal. I'm pretty sure I blew the tranny today. I was powering through a turn about 50% into the trottle and all the power gives out. I hear this weird noise, almost like a grinding. So I let off the gas completely and the noise it still goin on. I stopped the car and put it in park. Reved the engine a bit and I hear the noise again. Everytime I put the car in reverse or drive I hear that noise. I got a friend to tow it back to my house. So now it's sitting in my driveway and I don't know what to do with it. My friend sayes it could be the torque converter. I've got an automatic '92 civic dx. I'm tryna decide wether it's worth it to fix it, or if I should buy another car.

Help, what should I do ? I need a car ASAP..!!



Thanks
