The Ford Barn

I'm taking the doors off my 30 coupe. The hinge pins are stuck! I got the two top ones out, difficult but not really. Broke the heads off of two of the lower ones. (?) And I can't get the broken or the two whole pins out. I have saturated them with WD40, heated them blue, and pounded them with a two Lb hammer. I have hit them so much, I'm worried about distorting the hinge or the mounting. Anybody got any got any secret method. The mini wheel pullers from the vendors don't seem to work. Also, does anyone make stainless steel pins?
