My point  is that it is easier to remove the front apron than to wrestle that
unit  out with it still in place.

John,
I have owned my TR since 1964 (I paid $400 for it from my boss). 
I can't begin to count how many times I have had the apron off. I've always  
done my own work, but I remember I used to see TR3s at the dealership in  
Glendale with the apron tilter forward but not removed. I think they just left 
a  
bottom bolt on each side. I've never tried that, but guys trying to make a  
living as a mechanic tend to find fast ways to do things.
I also can't imagine having a TR3 without becoming skilled at removing  the 
apron. There are just too many things there that are much easier to R&R  with 
the apron off-such as the radiator.
