Looking for a Reel Stand for Penn International 80. Part No. is 30-80. New or Used
i took a quick look and i don't have one. anyone else?
These things are getting 'rare as hen's teeth'!
They are a weak link in this reel and have no longer been manufactured from quite some time. I have often discussed the need to build a stronger afterm2arjet stand for the 80 (and smaller) first gen. Internationsl reels. I think Cal is the only guy, I am aware of, to have done so.
Your request had me rummaging through my parts stock. I have bought every one of these I have come accross in the past 3 years, and I only have 2 left. You are welcome to one of them for $16+shipping (my cost).
This reminded me of an old project of trying to cobble together a franken International out of parts I have on hand. I put it on hold for a reason, and I am too busy with other projects now days, so it will have to wait a ways longer.
PM me your address and I will get it out to you early this week.
