    Mcculloch chainsaw vintage muscle saw. Originally Seller stated it was a 797,then ad was edited.Its a different saw from the early-mid 60's - a few years newer than a 797.Starter housing cover is also earlier,guessing the saw is a 740,790 or 795 with an older starter housing.No model numbers stamped underneath on the cylinder,so that could be replaced years ago also.

    Even though 797's show up less often & are harder to find than their SP125 replacement - Price still seems high considering its missing some parts......:whistle:

    You can pay too much. You can also pay too little. A 67% drop in price? Something doesn't smell right here.
