Thanks! Is there a place I can buy one in town? Does Autozone or O'Reilly carry them? If not, is there another tool I can get today that will do the job?

We had the same problem with dads Camry. Easiest way to get it out is to use a breaker bar. Put it on the bolt and have the handle on the ground. It HAS TO BE ON THE GROUND before you do this or it'll shear the bolt off. Once it's tight to the ground go inside and spin the motor over and it'll back the bolt right out. The shop next door to me does it all the time and you don't have to buy a specialty tool. Hope this helps you.
