Reply to "Drive wheel Repair"

Thanks everyone!

First off.... yes, I realize if I put any effort into straightening it, I may run the risk of ruining it. I definitely do not want that!

 

Just that my eager-self wants to see this beauty run on track one last time (*And video it!! Not many Issmayer video's around..)

 

Jim, the wheels ARE cast. They're soldered to the axel so taking the wheels and axels apart to straighten the axel, is impossible

 

Pappy, I think you're right.. it definitely is the axel that's slightly bent. But since the wheels are soldered onto the ends, I can't take this apart. I have applied "very light" pressure, going the opposite way... to help straighten the axel. It's helped a BIT! It's made it run on the track a little better.... but I'd be tempting fate if I applied any more pressure I think.

 

This might have to be one of those "display" but not "play" kinda deals. Darn it! :/
