removing body bushings

[BADWILLIE]

Wire brush the threads if possible and spray with PB Blaster for a few days.

The body mounts are my current PITA project on the 1980.

I broke the #1 driver's side bolt by twisting (and the threads were clean) - no real problem at all. However the bolt for the #3 passenger's side mount had to be cut. Removing the remnants of that bolt is my current "hobby". LOL

Hope you are lucky and don't have any problems.

PB Blaster is a similiar product. Unsure of which would be better.

Use an impact gun if you have the room. It will break a frozen bolt loose easier then a steady pull.
