Mike, So much for my solution. The box beam negates my idea.
Good luck. Larry

This cross piece has captive nuts in a rectangular box tubing. There is a
seam on the top and bottom. The captive nuts are welded in place prior to
putting the two halves together. No access to the screw from the rear.

Mike are there any threads sticking out on the backside of the nut? If so you
might be able to break the bolt remnant loose with a vise grip .If it is
threaded full length, you could continue to turn it till it comes out on the
back side of the nut. At worst screw it back out on the front side of the nut.

As appealing as that sounds to shoot it out, with my resources drilling it out
is my only option. If I (if you'll pardon the pun) screw it up, it will have
to have a larger hole cut out and the J&B Weld a blind nut insert in there. A
little paint and then who will know? Nothing is easy on this car.
