The simple answer is if you want a car with disc brakes get one. If your
car has drums and you're unhappy get rid of it to someone who wants an
Honest Car. Don't bastardise it and "upgrade" it.

Where does all this end? 

Not enough power..... Bang a V8 in it

Handling problems.....graft on some wishbones and an independent rear
suspension.

Before long the original is gone. Why bother buying it in the first
place. Before you purchase drive it. If you don't like it, don't bloody
get it.
