Title: 113 Frankenbuilds
Post by: thorhammer on October 16, 2015, 01:44:52 AM
About a dozen years ago when I first started tooling around with builds I acquired a pair of 113's with Newell wide frame and spool kits and never did much with them. I hit Randy up for two sets of Accuplates and low behold they had all the guts....so I end up with these after poking around in my spare parts to pull together an extra reel. The gold HLW's will be matched pair when I upgrade the handles. The 113 has SS spool with 113HL bars (I went retro with the maroon plates and orange wine cork bakelite handle to match the graphics in the badging) and SS clamp gear. Note SS acorns instead of wingdings....much sleeker.
