Absolutely. On Dunlop Ls, a Healey 3000 is a delight to drive. Oversteer is prevalent in fast corners while understeer shows in slower corners; no different to a lot of other cars. In the wet, they were excellent. My car was built to Appendix K as close as was possible and I loved it. Why would I want to turn it into a pseudo modern race car and fit slicks? I could race Fiestas if that was the case.
