Default 72 Ironhead rear tire question...

Sooo I've got the chance to pick this ironhead up for cheap... Only problem is buddy had the frame widened (he says he heated up the hardtail) to get a 180 rear tire on.

I'm not real strong in this area but I've got a 16in avon mkII 5.00-16 i wanna put on it, he claims I could just reverse the process by reheating it and everything would be cool. He's got all the original sprockets etc from before the process.

Any ideas out there on how much of a headache this could be? Really appreciate any info you guys have..

thanks in advance..
