Roadside find. 20/12/14/14
I think originally black lacquer
White interior with July 7 1965 red stamps.
White baseball bat mufflers. All nickel except 12" rims and double tom that was added. NOB rims on rest of set.
Bass t-rods are flat type instead of bow ties.
Floor tom leg mount look to be original but are not spring loaded type.
Thinking of taking off double mount and came with original nickel rail mount. Also has cymbal arm.

You found this along the road?
Yes , a lovely older young lady (older than me I'm 55) was on the side of the road at her house and I saw what looked like some cymbals in her hands going into the trash metal bin.
Yep 14" zildjian hi hats. I stopped and asked if I could have them and she said of course.
She said she had a pile of stuff to put out and I said can I help you with that. I thought it was going to be trash but it was this. I told her I would take it all and she said great. I told her to stay right there I will be right back. I went to the ATM up the street got out a $100 and brought it back to her. She didn't want to take it but I told her I can't take this without giving you this and the rest is history. Lucky day.
Wow! What a score, that's a cool wrap, you think it's a re-wrap?
I hope it's original but on my crappy monitor it looks like it could be paint. Good looking none the less. Club Dates are so cool!
Sorry had to split the pictures because I haven't figured out why I can't post more than one at a time. It is paint which looks like over black lacquer.
