Those old swedish made cardinals are the shizz-nite! My dad has about six or eight. When I was in high school he told me to go buy my own reels because he didn't trust me using those anymore.
we went ice fishing to pelican this january and he busted out his spinning reels. He used to service them himself when he worked at angler's inn. So, he took them to Mickey at Fish Tech, and Mickey wouldn't touch them! He didn't want to be responsible if something went wrong. Which I totally understand.
I'm now a shimano guy, fwiw ....
