Fuel door removal

1989 F150 fuel door is bent. Tried to remove it and stymied. It is riveted in, so I put the screw driver away. It has a pin in the hinge, but doesn't seem to want to slide out as it appears to be crimped at both ends. I can easily remove the spring but that is all. Should I cut the pin and get a new one to install the replacement. What am I doing wrong here?

Figured it out. Cut the pin and found a similar pin which I just crimped the ends and it works fine.
