When I opened up this 2080 it looked like it was full of peanut butter!

Its gears, screws, and bearings should be in good shape protected by that goo the past 50-60 years.  8) :)

Indeed they are in very good condition.  These reels are built like tanks!

That looks like a black textured finish rather than the usual shiny smooth charcoal gray. If so, clean that puppy up and put him on the shelf. Black textured 2070, 80 & 90 Sea Wonders are rare and pretty valuable. If it is a textured example, nice find! I sure wouldn't fish it if it were mine.   
Love those open face spinning reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco Cardinals)

What lurks beneath....  Get that nutty butter outta there.
