The old shimanos do not die.....I recently replaced all bushings with new stainless ceramic berings and carbon fibre drags in 2 x Bantam 50SG's and 2 x Bantam 1000 professionals, damn they are good to use still.
I managed to score a Shimano Triton Mag Mark III they come out in the late 80's. These are a great old reel, 5:1 ratio magnetic cast control. A good strip down, new bearings and carbon drags. Not bad for $20.....
