"This bass drum has 8 lugs with metal hoops and that flange top and bottom that i assume is for .................i dunno?"

The metal rectangular piece at the top and bottom of the hoop is for placement of a bass pedal and cowbell, woodblock etc...Replacement wood hoops is not a bad idea, I did this on one set, but I also use the metal hoops on another...Mouse

Congrats on the new/old kit! Please post some pics, it's not that hard to do. You can get a free imageshack.us account (I'm sure there are others too) and post them up there.

Oh... and welcome to the club!!

This is not the first steel-rimmed Kent bass I've seen-I posted a comment before regarding the infamous "Coffin"-lugged early 70's Kents,which had steel rims on the bass.No cowbell-woodblock holder for this one...
