Snagged a lost rod and reel

[QuirkyCarp2000]

I was bank fishing on a lake and had my lure stuck on something. I managed to bring it back and it came back with a rod and reel that was lost at the bottom of the lake. The rod was a old zebco, but the reel was a red Abu Garcia Ambassadeur 5000. I know about these reels and this must be a lucky find. I'm going to try to clean it up and get it working again. It must not have been there long, because I was able to clean the exterior easily. 

 

Anyone know what exact model Ambassadeur is this? I would like to k ow any information about this reel.

Could be any one of a number of versions. Google is your friend. Compare any schematic carefully with the reel to be sure you’re using the right one. If you want to send it in I’ll go through it for you. Just let me know
