Wanted Wanted - Old-Style Penn Spinning Reel

[Pete Collin]

Hello All,

I have been looking at the second hand ads for years for those Penn Reels that were made in the 80's or so that were black and gold.  They maybe were intended for salt water, because on a visit to Florida I saw a number of them for sale online but couldn't make a meet-up to buy one.  Thought I'd make an appeal here.  I can't give a model number, but the spinning reels Penn made in the '80s that came in black and gold and all metal construction seemed very well made, and were attractive, and I always wanted one.  Anybody have one they'd part with?
