Picked this up on ebay at a very fair price. I have an idea on how to refurbish that stretched left dropout without ruining the ser.# or stressing the metal in a new direction. I'm gonna clamp some copper blocks to it, heat the corner with my tig and dump some rod into it to replenish the steel. Then while its red hot I'll tap it back into position, closing that gap back to normal. then carefully grind.
