I am getting the roof off of my "1963 Century Travel Trailer" and am having trouble removing this vent. I have taken out all of the twisty nails holding it down and loosened the goop underneath. There were also 2 screws holding the outer pipe to the inner. I've also stuck a screw driver in between the inner and outer pipes and loosened it. It will wiggle and feels like it should lift off but won't. I don't want to cut it off in the hopes that I can reuse the heater. Does anyone know if there are some other screws that I am not seeing or some other way it is attached? THANK YOU!

The metal pieces have most likely corroded together. The vent tubes are not that expensive. I would just give it up and tear it out and replace it. But if you want to continue to try to separate the pieces it just takes a lot of banging and struggling and cussing and holding your mouth right...
