Default PV544 in need of attention

My wife spotted this 544 in a body repairers' yard near the hotel we were staying at in Gran Canaria last week so I asked if I could take some photos. Along with a Bedford Van, Landrover Series 1 , a Mercedes 190D and a very pretty, but rotting Lancia Fulvia, they all looked like they were on the 'I'll get round to restoring it one day' list.

Restoration would probably cost more than the finished value.

That’s true for pretty much any car you might want to restore. You’d only restore this one because you wanted to, not because you wanted to make money from it.

It has the split screen, so is a late PV444.
