I ended up with a cool reel I hadn't seen.  Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, it has been dropped on its handle.  The sideplate, where the one way bearing is, is ever so slightly bent.  When the reel is cleaned and assembled, the handle is 'tight' to reel.  It releases and casts perfect.  I tried to unbend the case, and while it is seemingly straight and true, the handle is still harder to turn than it should be.  I think I am just stuck trying to find a side plate.  Where can you find such a thing?  Obviously, finding a green one is going to be tough, so I have to get what i can.

Any ideas?
