First off, congrats on the yellow score!!!  As far as straightening the handle, I've only had one instance where I needed to straighten a badly bend handle like yours & this worked quite well. You'll need two 2"-3" chunks of thicker steel and a c-clamp. Put a piece of steel on top & under handle.  Put the c-clamp on & start tightening.  Should do the trick.

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞
