wire brush the threads
spray with wd40 or similar 2-3 times a day for a week
But looking how rusty they are
could possibly snap off

Looking at that rust and the base of the rear panel is it worth it structurally>

IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

I've got horribly rusted-in bolts out of 80 year-old vintage cars that look like that, by using very localised heat.
I use a MAP gas torch with a narrow flame ( LIKE THIS ONE )
However be very aware of the fire risk and make sure you're nowhere near fuel lines or the fuel tank! Sheild off any other areas to protect them from the heat using a heat cloth or pieces of sheet steel. Best to keep a good fire extinguisher handy.
