[Healeys] Looking for ideas

[Peter & Veronica]

....cut off pin flush, drill through it with successively larger drill bits until you can get a reciprocating saw blade in.

I just spent a week doing spring eye bushes on a Series 3 Landrover, so know the value of a reciprocating saw!

I left the seized shackle pins in both sides of this BN1 when it went off to TechnoStrip in the hope that they would come loose.
They didn't so I've spent an inordinate amount of time trying to extract them without wreaking the mounts on the frame.
Made a special puller, applied loss of heat, drilled right through each bush, grumbled a lot but they will not move despite being subjected to massive amount of force.
Any ideas...damaging the mounts in the chassis makes for a very tedious repair.
