Looks awesome! So what all did you have to do to them? Looked like they weren't in too bad a shape to begin with. Any work on the bearing edges, replaced any hardware?
Just recently got my father-in-law's '72 or '73 Slingerland (red sparkle finish) set out of storage and really have only given them a good cleaning at this point and replaced all heads. Toms were a little tricky to tune so I may need to look into having some work down on the edges, but they sound great.
Any other tips or good resources for replacement parts that you've found?- Gretsch 6pc Catalina Maple in Cherry Red

Dude. That wrap is cool. I wouldn't mess with it. Coming from someone who has yanked a wrap off a slingy drum it's a real pain in the butt and in this case not worth it IMO. Bet those sound nice
