I suppose he means that it is a Triumph as it might be if all the weak spots
of the original design had been properly sorted out - decent modern engine,
suspension optimised, weak half shafts replaced, modern brakes etc.
I agree that we should enjoy these cars for what they are and that it is a
bit questionable to try and make them what they were not, but I guess the same
criticism could be leveled at my Jamaican or my race cars.

It's very interesting, and a nice piece of work. Just not sure why he calls
it the 'ultimate TR3' when it uses a TR6 chassis and Nissan drivetrain! But
then
again, I'm not a huge fan of V6 MGB's either...
