Title: Penn 505HS
Post by: joel8080 on November 11, 2017, 11:42:46 PM
When we lived in Panama I bought a Penn 505HS basket case it was all there and the pieces looked in very good shape, we're back in the states now 3 1/2 years and today I decided to put it together.
Question  The right side plate has no markings at all on it, no Penn logo marking, no Model nothing at all just a smooth black plate, the clicker side plate reads Penn Jigmaster High Speed and at the bottom, it reads Ball Bearing, Made in theU.S.A.
Is the Right side plate correct or was it a factory second.
