disintegrated bump stop bolt 1998 V70
This is what's left of the driver's side bump stop bolt. It appears that the bolt has fused with the frame.
What are some options to repair this, and if I can't get it done on my own at home, what's the best way for me to get the vehicle roughly two miles to a mechanic? I think I have mentioned elsewhere on the forums that while I was changing out the rear shocks, the whole rear spring assembly fell to the floor! Sourcing parts, then fall work travel, and now cold weather have left the car on jack stands for months.

I think I would seriously clean that metal and just epoxy the bump stop back on
