I know a long time back there were discussions of modifications to the Long Beach 65. Basically, a 29L-190 aluminum spool and a 30-66 stand which is stronger than the stock 30-65 stand plus it has holes to attach a rod clamp.
I know that this was discussed, but I don't know if any photos where posted, so here we go:

Good job on that old 65.....thank you fr the pictures....Bill
That reel looks sweet! Good job on a workhorse! - john
Awesome,
I wonder if there is a set of Newell bars that will fit? I know the Newell 112H stand works, but a clamp makes this so much of a stronger reel as it is.
