If the paperwork is good and it has never been written off as gravely 
damaged, the title is likely worth more than car. My guess is 2000-3500 
depending on what someone is going to do with it. In the UK, it could be 
worth even more.

If the rear axle and front axles can be salvaged...even better! If a 
buyer sources a chassis frame and crossframe from the factory ($800) 
(and buys a skinned body with doors hung ($4500). then they are a long 
way towards a new car. There are many motors and drive trains that can 
be put in, including an original one at not too high a cost. My guess is 
20k and they have a new perfectly legal Morgan.

They can also rebuild the car from other Morgans' parts and have a 
authentic Morgan...even cheaper.

Lastly, they could bring in a virtually new car as a repair. But I don't 
think the Factory is ever going to do that again, regardless of the 
price they are paid.
