If enough working heads can be found, the drum probably can be remanufactured, as according to this: http://miriam-english.org/files/drum-computers/drum-computers.html the drum was nickel-chromium plated, not ferric oxide. This is what I would have suspected, as coating equipment and binders would probably be a far cry from modern technology back then, where precision plating was already an established art. --Chuck
