Talking Front brake rust problem - Updated
FIXED
___________________
 I've got a serious rust problem on my 1990 Civic DX. The car has been parked in the grass for a couple years and the brakes and spindle (I think) are rusted to everything else. I got the the rear brakes free turning, and the front callipers loose enough to take the pads out, and also got the out the bolt that connects the line to the calliper. That's about as far as i can go. Everything else is rusted. I can't even remove the calliper bolts to change them!
Helpfull tips anyone?

This car is REALLY not ready for the road, so new brakes are not in order yet. I just want it free so I can move the car under it's own power to the parking lot next door.
Pics are up. Be warned. It is not pretty!!!!!! *gasp*
...AND I forgot to mention yet again, the other side is exactly the same.
