Slight variation there Fred....
1998, My first BGT (YB) was totaled by the insurance
company...
www.teglerizer.com/mgstuff/yb_description.htm
I never let them take possession or store it.
I bought back the 'wreck' (cheap! very cheap)
So they just deducted that from the settlement check.

The title never changed from the original issue.
I used all the parts to redo OBie, my present daily
driver, then sold the remnants of YB (the wreck)
to a fellow up in Boiling Springs PA who used the
bulk of the parts to finish off a Heritage Shell.
