They will need some tender care but I should be able to repair the delaminated layers .........with the help of some of the good folks here.
I hope to pick them up in a couple of weeks. These photos are from the eBay site.
Follow VM2k`s thread on the repairs with the delamination and they will be fine !!
i love 'em. i think you did very well on them. the colors are great, i might add.

G. bongos are very hard to find.........
I have only had 1 pair ever,and that was around 15-20 years ago.........
They were blue sparkle,and had the small G. tom lugs on them.
The drummer of Stereolab bought them from me when he was at my house.
Those will look and sound great with the Valjes. I'm so envious haha!
