Thanks to Keith, Rich and Phil for their replies. Everyone has told me
to grind or saw off the ends of the bolt and then drill out the rest.
I'll give it a go.
If it proves too difficult (time consuming) then British Sports Car
Spares in West London will do a reconditioned (new bushes, bearings and
UJ) exchange half-shaft for 65 quid, which I think is quite reasonable.
I'll let you all know how I get on.
