I'd suggest a roof canopy, maybe canvas, attaching to a varient of the Fairbourne. Suggest your mate has a chat to them as they had some thoughts re a roof for a 5sp... or maybe the factory would be interested in a chat? Like this  or this

The classic F Supers used to have a factory fitted pram style hood, something along those lines would be far easier to develop for the 5 speeder

Think those hoods would work for hobbits but not if you’re more than 5 feet tall!

The native Inuit peoples had a cover for their kayak cockpits that covered their bodies and head and when standing outside the kayak it looks like you are wearing a skirt with a hood. However when inside the cockpit the skirt covered the entire cockpit allowing nothing to get inside, including rolling the boat upside down and back up without a drop of water entering the cockpit.
If seeing the dashboard wheel or shifter were not essential it would work for the 5speeder.

They all make about as much sense for a M3W and hilarious at best.
The only thing I have seen stop a motorcycle in the rain is while fording a river and getting water into the magneto or carb. I doubt the rest of the Morgan electrics would survive a deluge like that, but that is just a guess.
The most vulnerable part might be the leather seats and their corresponding cushion getting soggy and then turning to mold.

Or you could go this route.    Obviously wider for the side by side layout versus the tandem style of the Messerschmitt. Could be interesting!
