Just spray the shit out of it with WD 40 and then keep a running hose on it as you spin it around and around, you can keep washing the gunk out it works pretty well..

Hopefully I will have some time to check if out this weekend. I have a few solvent to work with. But by the picture there could be burrs causing it to hang up.

I'm a rookies to three wheeler's,  but with a little experience now, they do not get as hot as the OT systems, IMO.

Aman made the drop, now in my truck. Again, Thanks Chad. We looked it over, the handle should pound back pretty easy. All daisy wheels function.
No dents in the kettle, some pock marks from something bumping up against it over the years. The only real issue is the metal wheels, on the backside the are rusted pretty bad, really bad. Not sure if there is a fix. It has to be in the 50 year old range, and I know my body has taken a hit in 50+ years...

i've been searching "retro tricycle wheels" for awhile now & haven't come up with the goods, yet......

An exact size would help: wheel diameter, overall diameter, width at hub, width of tire, anything else that's measureable.......waist size before and after eating smoked / grilled foods, old wheels vs. estimated with new wheels.......

That's some pretty specific rust, almost makes you wonder if they had a dog? Tractor supply has a bunch of steel wheels in their stores but the holes are usually too large.

Try this on Ebay.  This is getting close and may give you some ideas.
