Vintage-ish reel for a vintage rod

I’m going to give an old rod of my dad’s one (or more ) outings. It must have been a decent piece of tackle back in the day - AFTCO rollers and a locking seat attest to that. But the Fiberglas is straight out of the fifties.

So I need a fairly inexpensive reel that wouldn’t look out of place. One of the smaller Penn conventional reels maybe? But maybe not too old and crusty, as in an aluminum spool would be more than ok.

i have a few. penn level wing #9 in good usable condition for sure. REEL BIG ONE TOO!

If it has rollers I'm thinking it needs a bigger reel, like a 114.  A smaller Penn conventional may be out of place.  Do you know the line rating on it?

Agreed i would go with a Senator based on that description

A Penn 9 is not a big reel.

Nothing is written on the rod, but a scientific wiggle says it’s meant for fairly light line, even with a tip diameter of about a quarter inch. 15-25 maybe?

So possibly a Senator 112 series or Jigmaster 500 would be just fine looks wise and catch all the rockfish Incould want.
