Somewhere mid TR4 the crank hole disappeared.   There is a common conception
that a "hole-less" radiator will help the cooling problems of the TR2-4
range - however, IMHO if the car is tuned and setup properly, you won't have
cooling problems.  Or another way of saying it, if you have cooling problems
the lack of a hole won't do that much good - for very long.  Something else
is causing the problem.    I can't think when I ever used my crank, but it
is a conversation starter at the "cruise-in'' shows.

$250?  Unreal!

I saw the following and wondered, how would this fit in a '2 or a '3 there
is no crank access hole through the middle?  Or am I crazy?  Did the '4 have
a crank, I haven't seen a picture where it shows one.

I wasn't thinking of bidding I was just information and education gathering.
