None of the removal tools I have are large enough. The wheel came off an old free spirit bike. Thanks.

Take the bike into some indirect light,(bright direct sunlight creates deep shadows) put camera in daylight mode, asa 200 or so , ( to prevent shake) and macro focus.Your photo is a black blob.
Spray threads with liquid wrench and let soak overnight.
Most likely this tool.

Destracto method may be needed if LBD does not have one. Cold chisel and a hammer into a notch, than wack away to unscrew. Soak with "Liquid Wrench" first. You just may be better off getting a replacement wheel as the cluster/hub my have a unique thread too. I just did the wheels on 1985 Fuji del Rey and had lots of trouble finding the right thread cones. Good Luck.
