Excellent old reel. Mid 70's model in good condition will bring you from 30-50 bucks on Ebay depending on cosmetics and if you have the paperwork, tool set and case.

Hello from Bluegrass country! I am a member of this great site but have not accessed it other than to peruse subject matter over the past 5 or 6 due to retirement keeping me so busy. Your reel is the green model and a good reel, however I cannot remember how it differentiated from the 5000, 5000C and 5500C. I have a question. I want to go to the sell and trade site but cannot figure out how to open a new thread on it? Could anyone help please? Thanks, /Bassnroun)

I think the old green 5000d is direct drive (no drag) with a bait clicker.

No the 5000D is just like the other 5000C models except for the fact that it had bushings only and no bearings but it did have some extra bling than the plain red 5000.
There was no 5000C. All the C models where 5500 and they had bearings in lieu of brass bushings common to the 5000 models. They also had a nicer handle set up and a little extra bling.
These were NOT direct drive and in fact had almost the identical gearing system in all models which DID include a Drag system that is still a pretty good system. The early Shimano and Lews reels employed a very simular drive system and drag system.
And yes the D series has a bait clicker which consist of a wishbone shaped plastic apparatus in the palm side which is engaged with a slide button next to the cast control.

?? I just went to the garage, and got my 5000c off the wall. It is a black round reel with crome crank and pearl knobs.. side bar release, and tension knobs on both ends .
left side says Ambassadeur 5000C ABU sweden..(has the crest on that side) btw , it has bearings , not bushings
