Did decide to powder coat anyway. Stripped most of it, except can't get the gooseneck stem out of the head tube. Bolt came out easy enough. Is it clipped in some other way or just frozen from being aluminum (I think) on steel for years and years? I've doused in penetrating fluid, hit with a rubber mallet. Hit from underneath with a 200psi airhammer. Not a budge.
