I got lucky and managed to get my hands on one of these awesome reels. It's not mint, it's been fished, but everything is correct. I though about tricking it out...but this jewel needs to be left alone. I think Penn got this one perfect from the git-go. 8)
Great find, no modifications needed, looks too good to be tampered with.
Beautiful reel.
Which anniversary are we celebrating?

Good score Mo, ;D
I have one I bought new: all stock except a Newell base
Has been my go to trolling reel for 34 years now. A very strong reel out of the box.
Smooth as the day I bought it...
Tite lines,

Thanks mo for the find and post. These are great limited edition reels. Usually a bargain as the frame and stainless main gear are unobtainable in after market items ... the spool is special too.
Go stretch some line.😂
Yes this is a nice reel when one sees how they came from Penn... Jeff
