Got to wail on it huh?

 

[Princess Valiant]

it might be rusty around the hub and a jolt will probably take it right off

 

[MrJLR]

Thanks....thought I'd ask first before busting out the BMFH....

hopefully it didn't bend or crack if you plan to re-use it. But I have seen those take a royal beating and still be ok. But you might inspect it real close, if you didn't already.
