If it had been looked after and was running properly, it would be around £50k so maybe not too bad an investment. But having been abandoned in a barn for decades it’ll probably need that spending on it to bring it back up to mustard.

Front right corner is very bad, it might not look it but for it to be that far out of alignment the underlying structure must be bent.

Love these, such an elegant looking car. Viable resto job or expensive parts donor...?

Since the original owner is dead, I doubt he cares what return he gets.
Providing you're not buying too many parts, it ought to make a profit
if it sells for around £10,000?

If its a DIY , possibly. But if it's done by a specialist(s) then I would think unlikely.
Just thinking Harry Metcalfs espada engine rebuild and then some...

At least if you spent that on it and wanted to keep it there's the possibility it'd increase in value

Imagine 50k leaving your bank account to arrive at this
