The Ford Barn

My original windshield glass is delaminating and needs replacement.
It seemed simple enough. Remove the two screws that hold the crank-out scissors from the frame and remove the 6 screws that hold the two top hinges to the frame. Once I did that both top hinges are stuck to the frame.
I cannot pry them off without bending the hinge. This is an original car so the assembly was done in 1934 at the factory. Were the hinges spot welded to the frame? The car is in very good original condition with no visible rust. What am I missing?
