Talking Attempt to remove body bolts, or just cut them off?

I'll admit, it's been nearly 50 years since either my friend Dave or I have removed a body for any reason, and 50 years ago the body mount bolts were 50 years newer in the A's we were working on. Body mount bolts being cheap, I'm not complaining about cost, just wondering if its even worth the effort? The body is very nice and not a representation of the hardware, as I have had to cut the rear fender bolts, the splash apron & running board bolts, so I doubt the body bolts would be any different. Cut them with a torch, break them off with a really big breaker bar or even an impact wrench? I am open to suggestions, and probably will not have the opportunity to attempt it for a few days because of more rain on the way.
Thanks in advance!
