Duxford Residents.

Hi all,
A few Duxford related questions.
Are Duxford residents Avro Shackleton XF708 and HP Victor XH648 beyond saving? Externally the paintwork has always seemed very poor so I can only imagine what structure corrosion is present in areas under the skin. Can these airframes still be safely moved or have their undercarriages become structurally fragile? I have read that both or one will be moved indoors once the Duxford expansion is completed. But will this be too late.
Has any restoration been done on the DH Comet at Duxford since it was moved indoors several years ago?
Andy.
