Daiwa 40 Conventional

[Tidetime]

I have an opportunity to buy an older Daiwa 40 lever drag saltwater reel.  It is gold and similar to the looks of a Penn international.  I searched the interwebz and here and wasn't able to find anything about them. Do any of you guys have an experience with them?  Thanks for any insight.
