Buy another drum.
But I will bet that its not your drum but a bent axle. The drum bolts flush top the axle and will not cause a wobble. If it was out a round there would just be a pulse in the brakes.

Wheel,tire, brake drum, axle shaft and misc. parts and a ton of labor costs. Nothing will be cheap or fast on that repair. On driving the car, not a good idea in my opinion.
