power window stuck down

trying to get the power window motor out and the window is stuck in the down position. I can't seem to pry the window up and there seems to be no way to get the bolts out of the motor with the window down. Should i not be able to pry the window up even if the motor is shot. I think i must have it binding some where but if not how am i going to get the motor out with the window down. Oh the fun these cars brings to ones life.

went back out and ran a direct line from the battery to the motor and away she went. Will have to clean my connection and maybe the switch and she should be good to go.

My switch was the culprit. Ordered one from Ecklers. This morning I drove to Zip products hoping they had switches in stock but they did not, won't have any in stock until the 20th. Btw they did have a good looking 72 for sale on the showroom floor for $19,300. Didn't look at the mileage.
Vehicle has a luggage rack on it.
