I agree also. I have restored A 3000 and the TR's are much easier to work
on. The Healey body tub is welded to the frame and restoration is more time
consuming. Outriggers rot out and the body support is poor. The narrow
hood also makes things difficult to work on and engine removal/installation
almost requires the entire front shroud be removed.
