Leland,

Is the West River Road the one that goes north from Brattleboro? That was
one of the best parts of my 1998 trip. It was in Brattleboro that the
Morgan was correctly identified for the first time since leaving DC, except
for one guy in Buffalo who was driving an MGB. Two young women crossed the
street where I was first at the light, waiting to turn left (North) and as
they passed the car, one looked at it and said to the other, "See, I told
you that was a Morgan." Civilization at last! I could live in a place where
even the pretty girls know what a Morgan is. And here is a picture taken
shortly before that event, when I stopped for lunch at this place west of
Brattleboro. The day was rainy, so I had all the weather equipment in
place, which produces an effect like driving a Quonset hut. Also makes it
impossible to hail pretty girls who recognize my car. 

That Bertone MG, if it's what I think it was, is a rare car. 

New Morgans are round $60,000 for the Plus Eight. The 4/4 and Plus Four
would be less, but I don't know how much--most of those sold in the US are
+8s. Is your question idle curiosity, or serious interest in buying one?
Older Morgans may be found in good condition for much less than a new one.
The availability of new ones keeps the lid on the prices of old ones.
