Your kit is '67 so there is a very high chance you need Chrome.Looking at the pictures, I would say indeed chrome.Nickel is slightly more yellowish and wouldn't shine as hard as chrome.I wasn't aware of different lenghts for Club Date Bass drum T-rods.Probably the "real" specialist can help you better,...Success !

Stedi, Yes Ludwig made different lenghts of T-rods for "CLub Date" bass drums.The two listing on Ebay are for a 12" deep bass drum..For a 14" deep bass drum Ludwig made the T-rods 7 1/2" long end to end...Mikey

The Sky Blue Pearl wrap that is being made now has a slightly different pattern than Ludwig's 1960s SBP wrap. It's close, but not quite the same. I doubt many people would notice if you were only using the new stuff on an inlay, but if you're a purist, you'll need to look for a hoop with the original inlay.

Kits:
1950s Gretsch Name Band in Midnight Blue Pearl (13/16/22/14sn)
1965/66 Ludwig Club Dates rewrapped in Black Diamond Pearl (12/15/20)

Thats what I am thinking!
