    Too Break or not to Break!

    I know at the end of the day it is my decision at as to what the car is worthy of money wise to get it good but would apprecuate feedback from people that have been in the same boat!

    I aint had it long but I know that it needs some love!

    The arches aint bad nor are the sills as far as I can tell. Tailgate pretty solid apart from wiper area as are the door bases which is good!

    Sprung an oil leak today no idea where from.

    Wheels need refurbing.

    Broke down today! Battery/Alternator

    That is it for now!

    I have a real soft spot for these as I am sure most people on hear do and I hate the prospect of another ending in pieces. It still puts a huge smile on my face and I would love so much to cherish and keep it a long time.

    I never bought it to make money as I feel at the minute they are pretty undervalued.

    I also bought it as I enjoy getting my hands dirty and doing the maintanence.

    I suppose the bottom line is do I live with it as is, drives ok, looks ok and wait till it dies then make the decision?

    Do I bite the bullet and fight the slippery slope of getting all issues sorted in time?

    Face reality and make a financial based decision and break it to recover the purchase cost?

    Simply sell it and get another?
