Audita -

There's not much hope of restoring this clarinet. The consensus is that it's a low-level student instrument with little or no intrinsic value. Straightening it out, so that the mechanism would work, will be very difficult if not impossible, and the restored instrument would be unlikely to play well.

Nevertheless, two generations of your family members have played on it and enjoyed it. I advise keeping it as a family treasure but leave it as it is. You might want to bring it to any living family members who played it and record their memories.
