ZEBCO REELS / Re: Zebco EARLY VERSIONS 202's and 33's
« Last post by Wompus Cat on April 14, 2026, 11:58:42 AM »Here are some pix of the Reels .
First I THINK is the 2nd EARLIEST for a couple of reasons
1. The fact it has an A/R and
2. It has a shim keeping the Pinion Gear from marking the housing as seen in Pic 2 below
https://oldreelcollectors.com/gallery/medium_2-140426122119.jpeg
Here is what I THINK is first as it has NO A/R and no shim indent causing pinion to Mark housing
FEEL FREE to PROVE ME WRONG
Here is a photo showing early housing with out A/R and one with A/R

« Last post by Wompus Cat on March 06, 2026, 11:54:30 AM »I knew about the early 33's not having anti-reverse until the 1958 model. I was not aware of the 202 not having it.
Have just LARNED bout the 202 myself in a Batch I was going through to give to kids .
Thought it was just a fluke but when I tore into it it WAS early 4 prong thick Heavy Base.
Actually had Ribs Molded into it for Reinforcement . and NO indentation for the A/R to engage but was Smooth round Will post pictures soon ..

ZEBCO REELS / Re: ZEBCO 33 75th Year Edition Reel
« Last post by Wompus Cat on March 04, 2026, 05:18:00 AM »Going to have to put these in the CRAP REEL DEPARTMENT .
They are PURDY but not usable as a Casting Reel like the old ones . I recently put one on a Rod to just see how they worked an well not too Good as you can not hold the line when pushing the button and it goes Haywire when you attempt to cast. I of course tore in to it to see why and discovered the reason . Will post in the CRAP REEL DEPT soon with my findings.
GREAT REEL TO STORE on THE WALL but not worth a CRAP TO CAST .
REALLY DISAPPOINTED !!!!
