Retro Re-do #2

Found this guy laying next to the candycane. He needed work too. Stripped him naked, sanded, varnished and put on new gimbal, reel seat and guides(replaced originals with exact matches). Slapped on a mint never fished Penn 2/0 Senator from the collection and he will stand proud next to the candycane.

Very retro look to that set up. Nice job. It's interesting that the butt grip is wood and the foregrip is cork.
