[OM] M42 lens repair

I received a nice little Tokina 105 F2.8 M42 mount
which I intended to use with my E-500 and M42 adapter.
The Tokina is an older lens which had been distributed
by "NPS" (a Canadian outfit). It is a 'preset' type of
lens...has to rings that control aperture. The problem
is the focusing ring is so damn stiff that the lens is
not useable. I believe the lens sat in its original
box for 30+ years and the lubricant dried up. Is there
someone that can repair this lens? I am looking for a
very inexpensive repair because the lens cost a
pittance.

Thanks.
