Default 1936 Flathead Rebuild

I know it isn't a 1926 like the header says. I hit a 2 instead of a 3 in the header. But if you look at the header when you clicked on and opened the link, you will see that it says 1936. Tried to go back and change it, but couldn't. Here are more pictures. Everything is off the frame, except the rear end. The hub is rusted to the axle. It has been soaking for a week and I have tried to knock it loose with a 10# sledge and a block of wood, and the damn thing will not budge. Any Ideas besides heating it up?

Don't know, but I'd love to see the finished product. Good luck, and welcome from Virginia.
