AirCore 40 Trainer Revival Project

I recently picked up this plane along with three others. It has been sitting for at least a decade and of course the engine was locked up. I managed to get the engine to free by flooding it with fuel and letting it soak overnight. However, the carb barrel is still frozen. I would normally just remove the engine from the plane but this plane is built so that getting to anything is nearly impossible. If I could unscrew the front wheel horn I could slide out the tray that the engine and fuel tank sit in. However,I don't see how since there is no access. Any ideas here
