During my TR3 restoration, I did remove all the cage nuts off the rear
fenders.
.
There was significant rust repair and almost impossible to replace the cages
in those places.
Most of all the other cage nuts are still there.
But maybe if anti seize had been used by the manufacturer I am sure the
problems with frozen bolts/nuts would have been much less.
To my surprise, there they still were used on the TR4, on the front fenders.
Every nut and bolt got a liberal coating of anti seize during the 4
restoration.
And every time I work on the 3 and remove nuts and bolts, anti seize is used
when parts are replaced.
