As Vince said, use patience.

But, if you're in a hurry, drill out the bolt heads. I was in a hurry  
once at a pick-and-pull junkyard, going after fenders and other front- 
end parts. I brought a battery-powered portable drill, extra batteries  
and drill bits. Worked great, was done real fast. Of course you'll  
need new nuts and bolts.
