I just got my 1998 Buick Century and the "low coolant" light is on. A mechanic checked the car and said the the head gasket is blown. What is the cost for repair and is it worth fixing with 56,000 miles?

56k is very early to have a head gasket failure. Is the vehicle maintened properly? i.e. oil changes, filter etc...? Estimate is below to replace both head gaskets (recommended both).
