Corcut,
Welcome to the Fiberglass Flyrodders!
That is an OLD Ross Reel. It looks like it has been through more than its share of fishing. I don't remember a cutaway frame like that OR the model name (Gunnison?). I think someone did the cutaway as a custom "improvement". The reel has a palming rim, so the only reason I can imagine they cut the frame was to reduce weight.
Skip it unless it sells really cheap. That reel has probably seen too much abuse.
Tom
