    Old Speed Spools

    I've got four old ones. Two boxes say Browning and two other boxes just say Lew's and I feel certain all are 30 years plus old. They are all marked BB-1NG They all work, but they could all use a tune up. Does anyone specialize in these reels that I could send them to and if not what's a fair price to sell all of them for? I prefer my newer ones with the faster gears.

    Is there still a premium David Fritts crankin' price on these things or has that passed?

    I already gave first didbs to a guy, but he wants to find out what they would cost to get them humming again before he commits. They may just need oil and greese but some parts may be worn that should be replaced if they are still available or I guess you could use one reel for parts if need be for the other three.

    Great reels but the parts that break the most are obsolete. I would also recommend outdoors unlimited in Kenly.

    The boxes have a little bag of replacemnt parts inside. What part are you talking about?
