This original Cooper S shell was advertised on Ebay Australia in August 2018, asking $4,000 as a starting bid. The seller noted the following comments at the time of sale:

11/1970, approx 95% complete, no motor or gearbox, body has been sandblasted.  Rust in floors, sills, front foot wells, seat crossmember, RH A panel, bottom of companion boxes and other areas.  Boot floor and rear beaver been replaced, roof also replaced (was dented), doors and bootlid quite good, bonnet OK.  Comes with most rust replacement panels.  Car requires full restoration.

Blue interior not original to car but from 12/70 Mini K.  Major Mk2 S parts missing - engine & gearbox & ancillaries, heater, brake booster, speedo, bumper overriders and nerf bars. 

Car has been reassembled for ease of transport, parts/suspension etc been cleaned only, not reconditioned.  Wheels on car included.

Includes original fuel pump breather, lower dash vinyl, hood lining, 1 x S rim, front & rear screens, 3 x new plastic flares.

Take a look at the others on the Morris Cooper S Register, and the Mk2 Cooper S information guide.
