It would take a magician to restore her to any semblance of her former glory especially "for a few bob" I've seen vultures leave more on a carcass after they have finished.
I personally am open minded about miracles, but on this occasion I would be inclined to recommend that you pay a visit to her at Southend and pay your last respects! I believe that she has even received her last rites! I will always try to remember her in either of her resplendent liveries (Dan-Air, Sun Country, or Sabre) cruising up where she belongs in excess of M .81
This is not to say that if enough individuals felt sorry enough for her that she could not be restored (at huge expense) for the sake of nostalgia. She would make a lovely corporate aircraft if someone wanted to give her a good home. Any takers?
