OMG, that reel did not look that good the day it was manufactured.

Hope you feel better soon but I honestly can not understand how taking Vinegar is going to help any sickness. I prefer Vodka. :P

Rick,

If OC built reels that looked like this, they would still be in business. Great looking reel!

Rick, did you use a buffing wheel or dremel on that or is that all simichrome and elbow grease? It's awesome!

I have my work cut out on this old pennel, this will be a challenge.

Steve...50/50 vinegar soak, Dawn scrub and rinse, buffing wheel using SATTEX polishing compound, with a lighter fluid clean-up and polish.

YOU DID GOOD...REAL GOOD! I saw the after pics. NICE!
