I have a NADA CLassic, Collectible and Special Interest Car
Apprasial Guide for Jan thru April 1998. In this book a 1977
Midget MK IV 2DR RDSTR is listed as
Low Avg High
1900 3075 4300
Since no place on the book is the term "Blue Book" mentioned, in this
case I would go with the $500 figure.
I have used this book in discussion with my insurance carrier, but have
been told that in a more current issue the price for big Healeys has
gone down slightly. So if you must use the book find the one with
the lowest value.
