[TR] Removing radiator without removing apron on TR3A?

Installing an electric fan is the main thing I intend to do while I'm at
it!

I certainly agree with getting at other things while you have the apron
off.  I installed an electric fan on the front of the radiator when I
had the opportunity.  What a difference it made when sitting in traffic
on a hot day.

Thanks to all for the input on getting the radiator out. I'll be taking




the apron off and using a gear wrench on the bolts and needle nose vise




grips on the cage nuts.









I restored the car just a few years ago. It's all new hardware slathered




in anti-seize, and never seen rain, so it shouldn't be too hard to




remove. I just hate the likelihood of chipping paint.









On the other hand it's an opportunity to get at a few other things while




I'm at it.









Cheers,




Curt
