Default Crank no start !!!

my 95 sc300 started smoking on the highway... i admit i should have stopped when i had the chance. I got to about a mile out from my house and then the car locks up and turns off. I got out of the car looked under the hood coolant was everywhere and melted the radiator and the cap together. We fixed what the visual problem was which was the timing belt tensioner bolt had come off and a bolt just chilling between the pulley somehow and bought a new radiator. We have the car all fixed up from that point there with only a crank no start can someone help us???

If the timing belt tensioner failed the engine probably jumped time. Check the timing marks on the cam gears, this video explains how.
