So since I have my dashboard off so I can repaint it, I figured it
would also be a good time to replace my entirely mangled bonnet
hinges as well. Unfortunately when I tried to remove the bolts that
hold the hinges to the chassis, I discovered that they are completely
rusted in place. These things are so well bonded together that when
I put the socket on the bolt and try to turn it, I begin to lift the
side of the bonnet! Does anybody have any suggestions or experience
with getting these thing out when they are in such a state?
