I got myself banned.
Cut the dropouts off of the scooter. Cut a new slot for the wheels and brake, drill holes. Deck is shorter but you can ride it again. I remember Sean Kane was riding a deck like this for awhile in the way backk

Yes, most reinforcements will help it out. If it's bent up, then but a back axle in and a bolt in the brake hole, then using the leverage from the whole reinforcement push it flush with the bolt holes in the front and thread 'em in. You might need a friend for this depending on the reinforcements, how gone the deck is, and how weak you are.
