Did anyone ever make a topless frame for the International 50S?  I have a 50SW with several mods (low gear is 1:1)  that I'd like to convert to a standard width and preferably topless.  

I'd also be willing to trade the frame and spool for a standard one if anyone is interested.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Hello Lee, John Baker (Baker frames) made a topless frame for a Penn International 50. Cal Sheets might have one available. I would estimate the cost to be at least $200 maybe $250.

Thanks John, I might end up living with the SW and getting a new reel if I really need one at that price.

Lee, Tiburon makes them and may have some in stock. I did my 50S and 30S.

Does anyone know if a 50S spool will work on a 50T?
