1950 Vent Window

The vent windows on my truck are rusted shut. I broke the passengers side window frame. The bolt that goes through the door at the bottom with the spring on it broke. I would rather not brake the drivers side also I took the nut off but that has not helped. I have now sprayed the mechanism with wd40 and it still has not loosened up after a week. Any suggestions? Anyone have a spare set that is free?

First off, don't use WD40, it's junk. There are other penetrating oil products. I use regular transmission oil in a oil squirt can. Tranny fluid has excellent penetrating action and loosens just about everything. Can't help on the items.
