Battery Tray Bolt Frozen 200 1983

Well it is always something! I wanted to remove my battery to give me great access for some other work. But the damn lock-down bolt won't come loose. I tried putting some liquid wrench on it and jiggled it all around before really trying to apply any pressure to the "eye" on the top of the bolt. Of course, the bolt just broke below the "eye". So I tired a set of vice-grips on the bolt as low down as I could get. But no joy there either. The thing seems well frozen. So any suggestions on how to remove it? It seems like no problem getting replacements from ipdusa.com. But I have to get the old one out of there. Thanks!
