Depending on where you live, there are some specialty alignment shops that use 10-ton hydraulic units to bend it back into shape.
The only other alternative (besides buying net tires every few months) is to replace the rear axle with a known good one. That's what I ended up doing on my '89 SPG.
The only tricky part of doing that is redoing the brake hoses from the body to the rear axle and being sure that the brake lines on the donor axle are still in good shape. I ended up buying new hoses. Your rear calipers need to be bleedable, too.
