Default 1992 xr3i alternator

Hi there I have a 92 xr3i cab with a 2.0L conversion still all old 130bhp water pump etc on it and my alternator has just packed in. I was trying to get the alternator out last night but got nowhere?! The belt is off but the long bolt going thru the alternator wont come out as it is hitting the body work. I need this fixed A.S.A.P as I have some1 v.interested in buying it. Can any1 help?

Cheers

Darron
