+1 on keeping them just as they are.

My 1977 Silver Metallic 24" BD is dressed with Natural Maple 2" hoops.... and it looks better than it did with the original 1.5" Black with inlays.

Yup, not going to change a thing. I played these last night at rehearsal.

Wow! The drums sound great & the 14x20 kick BOOMS!

Here are some pics all cleaned up & matched with my Powertone snare (Fullerton Badge No. 049996) which I believe dates to early 70's?
