When I did the dave yates build a bike thing years back, he had a frame with a stuck seat post fixed it with a vice, bit of heat and twisty brutality, worked a treat but wasnt pretty. Popped the frame in a jig afterwards to show me it hadnt bent / twisted at all.
Stuck seatpost is not a problem with some time and a bench vice.
I had a completely stuck seatpost and ended up soaking it in diesel for a week and doing the vice thing. The post didn't survive but the frame was fine and paint saved.

Nice frame.
