Hi Folks,
Just picked up these LA Camcos.
They were offered on our local Belgian version of CL.
Called the owner, jumped into my car, got stuck in evening traffic for 2 hours but I was lucky to be the first candidate that showed up and brought them home.
There's work to do as the BD and both toms are drilled for a hideous MIJ mount.
The chrome is rough but should clean up nice. Bottom 15" hoop is missing.
Most important, the shells are round and the edges are in perfect shape.
Odd sizes tough,... 22"BD, 16"FT, 15"TT, 12"TT.
The snare is a steel Tama Imperial Star with floating snare mechanism.
Hardware and cases are a mish-mash of Premier, MIJ and Orange.
I'll probably get the extra holes plugged and I have the parts to put the set back to its original condition but I can't imagine that the 15" rack tom will hold in place on the original triangle Camco mount. Probably better to go for a 1up, 2down set up?
Nice detail: The original Benelux import tag is still hanging on one of the BD T-rods.
Once I start the restoration and cleaning, I'll start a new thread in the restoration section.
