A friend of mine found this one and a 1963 just like it, in a barn find like something out of American Pickers on the Mn/Iowa border. 6.5 x 14 WMP was totally covered in Pigeon crap, rust, grime and the finish was faded to a really bright yellow. Well after a lot of wet sanding, cleaning, tumbling and polishing this is the end result. Not perfect but I wished I would have taken some before photos.

That is a great looking drum. The transition badge stuff is so nice. Beautiful interiors too.
