There are certain things that make my stomach drop...this being one of them
So sad to see Col.
It's fixable - but it's going to take some effort and likely a long bed lathe with centering support. I am certain you could find a machine shop to do it.
One thing I learned years ago with restorations regarding paint - let it dry a MINIMUM of a month before doing ANYTHING to it. Epoxy paint seems better, but car acrylic rattle cans are hopelessly bad. Dulux Metalshield epoxy is fantastic (I leave it 2 weeks before touching it) and their Duramax rattle cans are also very durable.
