I won't get involved. Whatever one suggests, someone will say it's b@ll@cks and what they use is best. That's a good price for a Solid C, though.

Don't know for sure, but if you contact Ewen Hill (forum member here and also at WSF) you may get a top section for nothing (or next to nothing).

Ewen is Penn UK's main repair man, based in Scotland. A legend in his own workshop he'll fix any Penn reel and have spare parts for most Penn kit.
