    Its not a $25 044 like some have scored. But I got this saw today. Got the box a random chain I found in the shed 2 bottles of oil and some files for $25. IMG_20141015_110343_547.jpg

    It cranked up and ran. After it got going it ran fine but I think it will need a carb rebuild. There is nothing but a nipple..its missing the vent grub screw or whatever is there.

    Also missing some parts of chain brake..not sure what cause I havent even pulled the cover. Its at least missing the lever that connects the clutch cover to the hand guard.

    I was the third to call 2 hours after posted. But was told if I get there first I could have it.

    It was an estate sale basically. Everything g was for sale. All the good stuff was sold I guess this weekend. Said a guy pokes around for a few hours. Bit I did end up with a bag full of craftsman wrenches a tool bag pair of gloves..a breaker bar and bastard file, and a gallon sprayer, and what looks like a 4-5 ton bottle jack for another $22. I had to leave and was out of cash. I didnt needs anything else really. So I left but it was fun :)

    Bottle jack can barely be seen under the back of the saw case.
