I've decided that I need a winter project.
I'm looking to refinish a Vintage boo. I hate dealing with Ebay, because you never know what your gonna get.
I guess my requirements are:
WT: 3-6
Length: ?
Price: $100 or less
Condition: I don't really care as long as it's in reasonable shape. It could be just the blank or it could be partially complete.
I don't want to get too deep($) into this until I know if I will like casting it....
Thanks

Hello black_co, i'd think you'd be better off with one of the auction sites to be honest...you may not get much more for less money if you do some bidding (Ebay) or buying (craig's) than you would by asking for something decent here for under a hundred...but who knows...maybe you'll get some offers here soon too...
I've got one i know i'll never get to but it's going to be a lot of work for someone and i'm not sure it's even worth it. I think you can find a good project with a little looking around though and you might even try fly shops as i've seen old stuff for sale a lot of times including old reels and cane flyrods.
Good luck,

Hi Black co,
I have a South Bend Double Built No 336, 8 1/2', 3/1, 6 weight rod. I would be willing to sell for $95 plus shipping costs. If you are interested send me a PM and I can give you a detailed description and photo's. Thanks!
Black_co,
I have a refinished Montague Mt. Tom. 9' 6wt, 3 pc. The rod and wraps are perfect but the cork grip needs replacing. The reel seet is the original blue plactic. Comes with aluminam rod tube and sock. $75 plus shipping.
