nralover Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I noticed that folks talk of the original green Curados with much reverance. Can someone tell me which model they are? Quote
Donkey punch Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 I can remember when they were red. I hope I am not mistaken, I do know I had a red Shimano reel, and I think it was a Curado. Quote

Bantam1 Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 The first Curado was actually two tone grey and silver. The "Tomato" came after it Quote

An original red Curado sold on ebay recently. It was NIB...it had been in someone's closet since '92. It went for $140....graphite frame and all! Quote

The "Tomato" came after it Yep, that actually why after the B model you get the D model. The silver should have been the A model, the Tomato the B model, the mean green the C model, the grey the D model and the new mean green the E model. Quote
Donkey punch Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 I would have loved to have it. It brings back old memories. I have been looking on Ebay for one. I guess I missed that one, though I don't think I would have paid anywhere that price. An original red Curado sold on ebay recently. It was NIB...it had been in someone's closet since '92.
