´84 Fuchs 16 x 7" wheel - damage assessment
- Is this something to be worried about or not too relevant (for normal street use)?
- If relevant can this be (feasibly) repaired?
Many thanks for your advice!

A decent used 16x7 shouldn't cost too much. I'd want to replace that, looks like someone has tried to air chisel a locking wheel nut off. I'd be concerned that the wheel nut wouldn't be locating centrally and maintaining the correct torque setting.
Not sure I'd want that repaired in such a critical area.
I'm no expert though.
A pair here, though a wanted ad here and on IB would probably get you sorted.

I would not be using that and I would be getting a refund.
