Not always need for a ccm-monster to have a nice old saw:
Sachs-Dolmar 117, poor man`s version of Sachs-Dolmar 119, sold in 1978 as "farmers saw" in all orange and still with mechanically timed ignition instead of the electronic module of Dolmar 119 (which was a big deal in 1978!). Here I rebuilt with an aftermarket piston, wich was 0,3 ounces heavier than the original one. A much stronger crank from 120s was used to compensate, as well as 3 Cylinder gaskets to handle the aditional stroke. Nice old lady with great optical shape, now doing a good job in a friends collection.
