    I dunno about that one being NOS. Those "Super 1050" decals look pretty lame and the air filter cover doesn't have the white lettering where it says "Homelite". Maybe she was put together from NOS parts? Nice to see that Walbro in there tho. I would have a hard time parting with $3K for it.

    My guess is if you offered $800 for it the Seller would snatch it up.

    That's the way they were in late production. I don't care for the decal arrangement either. You have to remember, Homelite produced that saw well into the 80's. Textron selling out (or however you want to look at it) was kind of the final nail in the coffin.
