    Ok, I guess we can work out some sort of trade :drool:.
    I like that one for sure, and I have an air filter and a bar or two around I've been looking for a saw to fit them lol.
    Congrats on the new saw j :dex:.

    Up early! Went to the VFW yesterday and had a few drinks. I was out on the couch by 8pm.

    I got about 7 hrs of sleep, so I'm just gonna chill and look online till the rest of the house wakes up:)

    Sorry to hear about the stihl. I think the 260 is as good or better saw than the "farm boss" and it's true a farm boss bar will get you more money and sell faster.

    My friend that I bought this from has a bunch of vintage saws he is looking to sell. I am going back this weekend to see what kind of deal I can make and take some pictures to see if I can help him sell some. I went looking for a rear handle for the 288 I already have and found more than I bargained for.

    That's a beauty, you can always tell when you get a keeper, they ride shotgun instead of in the bed or trunk....

    I don't know I haven't checked the year I'm pretty sure it said made in Sweden on the serial number tag though.

    Early models had the metal brake, and the later ones the plastic brake.
    Pretty sure that one is the newer model so 90-2001.

    I'm guessing there is no fuel or oil in it, since it's a husky, they all leak, and it's on the seat.
