Now I'd take pride in what it is, and not change a thing. Get some matching hubcaps or paint the steelies with some Halfords branded silver paint.
Polish up the exterior, only spend money on a bucket and sponge mate. Anything you spend on it is literally money wasted.
As it stands, you have a retro car with a little bit of a funky appeal, you can sell that on for £250, 300, 350 with ease depending on how you dress it up and advertise it. Painting it matt black will instantly drop it's value to that of scrap, and it will make the car look like a heap.
