The 1984 has through bolts that hold the rotor on correct?
I know some went through as a bolt/nut while others screwed into a threaded hole in the hub.
If these are the through bolted ones you can use a chisel to break the nut off the bolt. Or you can use a torch and heat the nut to red hot and it should come off.
Another option is to buy a twelve point socket that you can drive onto the nut/bolt head after heating it and use that to remove it.
