    sounds like there is no glass in it. I'd try the old torch trick. Heat the hinge and work it with a crescent wrench to free it up inch by inch. The hinge is just 2 interlocking curls of metal. When you get it free you can drive the flange out of the other half by hitting it on the end. I was able to get mine freed up.
