Tracy

The answer to your queation is yes
It will take a lot of work but it can be improved
It would help tremendously if you had another full facial of the damaged lady as it will be almost impossible to get a true resemblance of her face - if you had another photo a restorer could transpose the face to this photo to save a lot of work (and disappointment)

Hope this goes some way to answering your queation

Tracy has asked me to color this for her. As you all know I am not very good at it so would some kind soul help me out here.

Feel free to use my restore and do whatever you like to it.
