Lynn,

On old iron, if a bolt or nut is the least bit stubborn, I break out the torch. Many times I've broken the first bolt, then applied a little heat to the remaining bolts and had them come right out.

I think the idea of welding a nut to the broken stud will work. Just add more heat if it doesn't come out immediately. Don't be shy with your torch; you'll probably need to get it red before it loosens up.
