Bradley Boon posted this over on FB. Maybe one of you Aussies might want to repatriate it? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/msg/5266083382.html

It's a pity that the bottom FT hoop is not included... pretty sure they are a 9 lug hoop.. Kit looks in good nick though..

Cheers

Ha Ha. Good point.

I guess that most Australian collectors will never own one of these as they are pretty scarce in Australia. That was my thinking.

To be honest, being a New Zealander, protecting Australian culture and heritage is not something that keeps me awake at night;)

John - I have heard about the 9 hole hoops. There's a guy here who's been trying to locate one for a long time.

I think some early Sonors also had a 16" 9 hole??... and a short term solution would be a stickchopper style flange with clips..

Beautiful kit and I'm jealous. Is there a front BD head and hoop?

And I just wanted to say I thought "commonwealthist" was pretty funny too...
