He should have drained the system, or heated the garage. If it was an unheated but attached garage you may have gotten away with it. I agree with JW, if it is exposed to 27-28 degrees for a sufficient time that will result in a cracked cylinder block. And as JW says you want the traditional "green" antifreeze but you can either buy it full strength and mix it yourself to about 50/50, or buy the premixed stuff - same result either way. Here's hoping the damage hasn't already been done.
