I have quite a few Harnells, they are all coated black over brown glass. The gold is tape,must have been degraded and came off like thread.

No, it was not the tape.  I said gold but it was the usual yellow/gold nylon thread.  I pulled a piece out of the trash and took a picture.

Well almost done with the 16/0  Harnell combo. I have some new studs for the rod clamp coming so can't put line back on yet. Right now it's all the way it came I even cleaned up the original butt instead of using my new one. There is some brass showing here and there but at least it ain't green !! The rod came out real good !     John Taylor

Really nice work, John.  I'm glad I didn't get that combo because I couldn't have brought that rod back to life like you have.
The reel came out great for what it was just last week. ;)
Those grips came out silly good.
Thanks for showing

Dom is a good guy for not buying it out from under you.

Really classy and a really classic combo.  It epitomizes a time.  Nice work as always John.
