If your Ambassadors are Swedish made I will purchase. I own many reels & while s few might cast a bit farther the Swedish Ambassadors were & are great reels. I have 2 0f the 2500C reels & they are some of the best light casting reels ever made. I gave away many of the old red Ambassador reels when the multi-bearing models came out. Own a number of 5000C's that are good all around casting reels. A friend just gave me a reworked red Ambassador 5000 & its a great reel. The 6500 is still a great reel for cats & stripers in southern lakes & rivers. I even have a 5000D(no drag when you hold reel handles) that's great for flipping & a 5000 that was made in the US.
