Is it restorable?

Hello, I knew this welding on the frame is bad, but didnt know the front fork was soo damaged. It looks like the steam is frozen in the fork as well. What do you think? Use it like that? Is it safe? The bike is from 1958, brithish ralegh sport. I guess if it was working like that will be ok to ride it with this fork.

Sorry, but it looks like junk to me.

Household waste, scrap metal skip I'm afraid.

tbh frame looks like its been repaired by some one trying to learn to weld not worth taking a chance on would always look bad and you could never be sure it wont fail, forks again you never really be %100 sure they wont fail.

@aptucta if the frame is something special to you then i would suggest a visit to a frame builder like Lee Cooper to carry out a proper repair , if it is just another bike then i wouldnt bother to much either

Thank you for your opinion. I will leave as it is. I got this bike for spares/testing for my other restoration project. I think its a waste of money and time to get this fixed.
