It is still saveable but it's going to cost so much to put it right that it's in danger of being left to rot :(

True in a sense but for someone it could be a cheap little project. Would only need someone with a clear and simple view of what they want, some time to properly prep the paint and, as much as i generally dislike it, some matt/satin black could result in a tidy Danny-esque Viva.

I know theres nothing irreversable, but i cant help but think it looked better and was more saleable before it got buggered about with and covered in green paint and stickers :-/

you'd think a drifter would do something about the engine and running gear before the paint and decals :P
