I will remove this listing on June 14th due to a long business trip. I would like to offer this to someone who appreciates its value. (It's rare to find a Smooth Foot for under 40,000 yen! I have two, so I'm selling one.) This is a 5001 Smooth Foot, a model with an extremely limited production run that you rarely see! * Foot Number: 067200 (Extremely rare Smooth Foot) * Small diameter, round 5-point drag knob * Spherical carriage * Short counter handle (marble knob) * French ADR barrel-shaped self-centering bearing * Hand-tightened mushroom nut * Mirror finish cast control These are the features of the ultra-rare first-generation 5001C, an early 1972 model! Please enlarge the photos for more details! ● Disassembled, degreased, metal parts polished, thoroughly cleaned, and carefully reassembled with clearance adjustments using ABU genuine oil and grease (unused after overhaul). All parts are original. ● The exterior has some minor scratches commensurate with its age, but it's relatively clean (minor scratches have been touched up). ● The mechanism is in very good condition. The grease is applied thinly except on the gear teeth. Spool rotation and drag operation are also very good. ● The frame has been thoroughly checked. There is no distortion or loose crimping (the crimping has also been reinforced for peace of mind). ★★★Please be aware that many 5001s have distorted frames or loose crimping! If the spool center is off, it will greatly affect casting and reeling!★★★ It has been fully overhauled, so you can use it with confidence. Shipping will be carefully packed and sent via Yu-Packet Plus. ambassadeur abu 5001 5001C ABU 5001 アンバサダー (Ambassadeur) アンバサダー 5001 (Ambassadeur 5001) アンバサダー 5501 (Ambassadeur 5501) アンバサダー 5500 (Ambassadeur 5500) アンバサダー 5000 (Ambassadeur 5000) アンバサダー 6001 (Ambassadeur 6001) 左ハンドル (Left-hand handle) 2500c トップウォーター (Topwater) バルサ50 (Balsa 50) ザウルス (Zaurus) HEDDON 左巻き (Left-handed) LEFT ビンテージ (Vintage) アンバサダー2500 (Ambassadeur 2500) 五十鈴工業 (Isuzu Kogyo) abu5001 アブ5001 (Abu 5001) カルカッタ (Calcutta)
