Originality.
For a special car with provenance or unique history then yes.
For the majority of cars ( many thousands) then keeping them running well with suitable upgrades/ mods is fine. It allows safer extended enjoyment and keeps the car on the road. Improving on the original build is a regular Morgan thing. Morgan build the car but the owner finished it off. Personally I am amazed at the silly low mileages on so many Morgans. They are not “ precious” adornments to be polished to death between MOT’s.
