Thanks for the pictures, but it's difficult to tell the condition in some of them because of the glare. However, depending on how cracked the finish is, it can be glued down if it's minor. Can you show some pictures of that area?

It looks like a really nice kit, as-is, from what I can tell. I can't really see the scratches you have described -again, picture-quality, but, with a lot of elbow grease and patience, you can get that rust off the railmount, etc. and get the shells cleaned up really well...you're good-to-go!...unless I'm just not seeing what you're seeing.

For me, and in my specific opinion the value in your kit is that it's matched. That's SO important to collectors of drum kits. I won't even consider a kit (for my collection) that isn't badge/date matched.

As far as re-wrapping...I reserve my opinion until I can see the details of the damage more clearly.

Snare looks to be in great condition

The drums look like they will clean up nicely. Even pitted lugs can be made to look real shiny. (I use Noxon and a cotton rag.)

I think if you cleaned them up real good...Novus #2 on the shells...you may like them the way they are. Value wise, you won't get as much if they're recovered, especially the floor tom.

BTW, it seems that on early keystone badged drums, those double straight spurs show up pretty frequently.

Strip them of hardware, clean, polish and reasembly. Come back with some pictures and get another opinion.

As advised, post pictures of the cracking. LIkely can be repaired if not missing any pieces. Those dates would stop me from recovering them until I tried everything I know (and with some advise from here) before I would recover them.

Thanks for all the imput. Sorry my camera isn't the best. The cracking I am talking about looks like you'd find on a cars widow when it shatters into thousands of small bits, but the glass is still in place in the car. It makes it look hazy. I'll see what I can do about better pictures tomarrow. Thanks!
