I remember the guy who had the whole front apron tilt out, I think it was
feature in the Moss magazine, yes, that looked like a lot of work.  Really,
I was just looking for a bonnet release system that might be similar to what
was found on the TR2 & TR4.

There is another in France.  I saw it last May.  I don't know if it is the
same one I saw pictures of some eight years ago since the owner had only
bought it recently  and from an intermediary if it is indeed the same on.
Pretty clever and convenient.

I saw a TR3A years ago that had been modified so the entire hood, apron and
front fender area pivoted forward, ala Spitfire etc.  Seemed like a lot of
work, but sure would make changing the radiator a lot easier!

I think that was at TRfest in San Diego, around 2000 or 2001; but no idea of
the owner's name or how to contact him.
