problem with a stem removal

it's an old bike [dunno if pics are necessary

the stem won't budge, she's rusted in!

on other bikes which were tough, i would squirt WD-40.. turn the bike over, squirt more WD-40, place a steel bar through the bottom of the fork and whack the hell out of it with a heavy hammer.. with success. even broke the tightening nut on a few, but she came off

not this one though


any ideas?
