It turned out that one of my high school friends had this in his antique store,in the back room !!! All,I had to do was clean it up a bit and change the skins and clean a bit of surface rust on the bass drum chrome hoop. The wrap is in excellent condition and so are the shells !!!! I found a badge for the bass drum in Brandon Mb ,that was missing . I would like some help to figure out ,as,to what my kit would be worth !!! I have my 70's Zildjian cymbals on it ,plus the German Generation X crash !!!

Allan...Like ALL MIJ drums there is a perceived value from the start. Kits depend on condition and if the snare drums are included. Your kit,thx to some elbow grease looks great and would bring in the high side of the scale...I,d gladly pay 350 -450 for the shell pack only. If you get more then you,re off to the races. Dont forget,MIJ gear value is already pre determined.Yes Sir

Hit like you mean it!!

Wayne -- I agree, and that's a cryin' shame! Maybe someday we'll move past that "pre determined" value thing. I've got a partial set of MIJs just sitting because from a profit standpoint I'll not get anything out of my "time" let alone buying the missing parts. Have already talked to Johhniestix about just giving them to him if I ever make it down his way again...

Allan -- the drums look good, no great! If I were you I'd be tempted to just keep 'em and play 'em from time to time!

Nice looking kit Allan! I haven't been to "the Peg" since Grey Cup 98. What's the Red looking like this spring?

Great looking kit! Very clean. I understand the double tom holder with the

smallish single post was only used for a year or two, which if I am correct, would add to the value, in my opinion.

I have 2 sets of Coronet's from this era, with the same badging and hardware. Mine have an inner ply of what is a much higher quality then usual wood, which I believe is maple, but hopefully someone on the forum will know this for sure. The entire shell is not quality wood, just the inner ply. Are yours the same? Could you shoot a pic of the interior of the kick, please?

Again, fantastic to see your kit! Thanks for posting it

Great looking kit. WMP is one of my fav wraps. This one looks so brand new, just like being re-wrapped!

Love the stylish badge, too.
